weeyellowbloke Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 I play guitar (badly), tin whistle (badly) and used to play trumpet (badly). I lack talent in everything I lay my hands on, but I figure if I can play lots of instuments badly I might be able to fool some people into thinking I'm an average musician. Also for some reason I told my girlfriend I'd write her a song for valentines day. I am now kicking myself as I try (and fail) to use my limited creative talent to create something that doesn't sound like cheesy bollocks. I'm considering making some form of basic backing track in a Psycho Killer-esque way. Why couldn't I have kept my mouth shut and just bought chocolates.

McPhee Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 I used to play French Horn in school. Kinda got roped in to it, i wanted to play Saxophone... Was a pretty decent keyboard player back then too, but i stopped playing and now i can't remember any tunes Think a set of drums are gonna be next on my purchase list. Probably electric because they take up less space and i can play them with headphones on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nintendinosaur Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I've got me a Dean Dime-O-Flame. I love it, it sits just right and plays very smoothly. Like the look of that DV8 though. My bands picking up again now, but I'd like to be doing music thats a bit more technical and METALLL \m/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killthenet Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Our walkabout bassist finally came to the practice, so we can now set about adding some dirty, pulsing PiL rip-off basslines to our growing catalog of No Wave rip offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

or else you will DIE Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Does anyone know any basic and free music editing software, like a really basic free version of cubasis or something? try Audacity. If you look around you can find loads of free VST plug ins for it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomJcg Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Just learning how to play the Acoustic at the moment, and slowly changing chords (i started like a week or 2 ago =P) My dad has a 12 string but for obvious reasons im not going near that. Is it hard to switch from acoustic to electric? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it hard to switch from acoustic to electric? No, it's easy, your playing doesn't need to be as clean. Thinner neck often makes it easier to play. By the way, is that Noel Fielding in you avatar, I can't quite tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why yes it is, I'm trying to learn Bar chords at the moment, but my dad knows none of them, could anyone give me a link or something to teach/help me? I so far have this: http://www.guitarchordsmagic.com/basic-guitar-chords/guitar-bar-chords.html but it's pretty text heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShavenWolf Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I <3 to play my Rickenbaxx0r bass. As I'm sure a few members of this forum are already aware. :P In my band This Is My Lawnmower, with my bass amp in the background: And you can hear our music-ness over at http://www.myspace.com/thisismylawnmower. It's a bit Muse-y, a bit electro, a bit of it's own thing... so if you're into that sort of thing, it might be for you. If you're not, see if you like it anyway! Holy crap! I've just found out that we're part of XFM Manchester's Uploaded Featured Band of the Week competition thing. So, I know I'm asking a lot here, and maybe being a bit cheeky, but please could you support us and click on the 'Vote For Us' image on the side on out XFM Uploaded page? http://www.xfmuploaded.co.uk/thisismylawnmower/Default.aspx I'll personally reward everyone if we win.
