That sucks beyond suckyness. I would hate to have my guitars sold. It would ruin me. Maybe you feel ... ... dang.

What songs do you play? What genre?

The first time I even came in contact with an instrument was 6 years ago when my mom had me take piano lessons. We had a small Samick studio piano. I never took any intrest. I felt the impression I was being forced. I eventually quit. a year later, I played the flute, I was good at it, but I didn't enjoy it. Then came the violin, but those lessons weren't pleasant at all. It was all just a mess, so, I dumped taking any form of lessons out the window.
Then 3 years ago, I met a friend that owned an Oriental Kawai (not Kawaii D:< you otakus stop bugging me!) grand piano, and that thing just struck me in the face. Compared to my studio samick the thing was a goddess' voice. Everything you played on it sounded good. I guess that got me back into playing the piano again, and Its sad to say the piano that inspired me so much will have to be sold soon. My friend isn't taking it too well either.

I'm decent at playing the keyboard, and I can play a couple of songs on it, but I can't really play properly with two hands at once yet, at least both of them doing two different things at the same time...but I love it <3

I guess it was because at the time i was learning piano so my mum probably wanted me to stick with that or something.

That's strange. I fail to see how restraining your kids from learning a musical instrument at a certain age results in any kind of benefit. I started the piano at 3 (more on that later).

Cool we can brag! Here's my story!:

Well actually we were basically "forced too" because of band/orchrestra/general music in school. Music is one of our main subjects in school. In orchrestra you can decide to play, violin... and that's pretty much it. In band you can choose between a flute, clarinet, drums and bells(both), trombone, and the trumpet. In general music you get assigned to an instrument but the instruments are, drums, rattle, cowbell, and bells.

I chose band because I really wanted to try the flute because it was something small, petite, and elegant like me. .^_^. Tee Hee. I hated how you always got lighthead when you blew to hard into it. But I know it plays beautiflly. (now time for the bragging) I FEEL LIKE I AM THE BEST FLUTE PLAYER IN MY CLASS! Because I am the only one that actually TOUNGES. The other people only BLOW into it.

I wish I could tell a whole lot more but I really am not in the mood right now.... SORRY!

I use to play the trumpet and cornet. I started because my mom wanted me to do something constructive......but in the end all it did was waste most of my credits on a class that didn't matter.

I still do enjoy pulling it out and playing around once in awhile.....but hasn't happened in a long time.

I brought both of my guitars this morning [Tuesday] to play for chapel. I
used my FS-6 Boss footpedal, and amp [of course an amp... lol?]. First \
song, I used the Stratocaster, then switched for the next song, From The
Inside Out [by Hillsong United]. Then switched again for the last song.

The reason for having two guitars is that I get to have my Stratocaster in
DADADD tuning, and Gibson in EADGBE [standard] tuning.

Funzies.

@ John Man 1234: Watch out. Going this far when dating could ruin you
and her heart. There is a good chance that you will break up before
marrying, so writing love songs is a bad idea. Be wise, my friend. But if
you really want to write the song, do it. I can't stop you. : )

:iPod:

I've played flute before. One of my best friends gave me his guitar last year. I am currently writing and making a love song for my girlfriend that I''m going to play just for her at a party this weekend.
