@venya Nice! The part starting around 30" reminds me of Bad Horsie by Steve Vai.

@venya I firmly believe that if you shout something that may (or may not) sound like the chorus of the song consistently for a few months / years, the rest of the band will eventually give up and let you switch the mic on.

At least they did for me.

@rdg_music I can't help but notice the piano has been designed to hold a beer glass.

@GuitarMoog It's not even complete. :-) The Epiphone models are not all there, at least the G-310 isn't (I own one).

@GuitarMoog I can't see what bothers you. Maybe it would be better with a few more strings?

@BurningPaper My main styles? Pop and rock mostly, leaning toward heavy metal from time to time.

I took lessons for a few years in a school for hobbyists. Mostly bass and singing, some drums, a little (very little) guitar and piano. Got into a lot of bands with other students, most of them ephemeral, some lasting for a few years. That was the real beginning for me, playing a lot of different stuff with a bunch of different people.

I played whatever I could, mostly pop, rock and grunge stuff (it was the 90s). Never got formal training, never really played in a band but I enjoyed it a lot.

A few years later, a friend sold me the bass he had bought about the same time I had bought my guitar. I started taking lessons a few years later when I could afford them. After two months my teacher pushed me on stage and I was hooked.

I started learning music as a kid, maybe 6 years old. Not that I was particularly interested at the time, my family was not even really into music, but that was one of the few activities for kids in my village. I learnt a bit of singing and played the saxophone for a few years but I wasn't particularly enthusiastic and I finally stopped.

Fast forward 6 years or so, I had a few musician friends in high school, got a guitar as a christmas present.
