The lessons were every thursday for less than an hour. Learning only basics. The guy was a bad teacher and was always late and or not coming. When he did show up he was always spacing out. All this for $300 per "unit". One unit was done in a month, I believe.

I dunno what I'm getting, for all I know, it'll be a one you can pick up at the treasure box inside a dentist. I just kinda though I'd want to learn that too b/c hearing some of the Yardbirds stuff with it.

I dont know how you do it duffy but you manage to make an even bigger ass of yourself every time you post. Just stop, for the love of allah stop.

I've been playing guitar for about 4 years now.. tho lately ive rarely touched it. I got to a point where i seemed to stop improving, and ive been stuck in this rut for a while now. I'm hopefully going to buy myself a new guitar early next year, that will hopefully get me back in the swing of things. I also have a harmonica, but i cant play it really.

I also own a ukelele, no fucking lie. hellfire:

I plan on learning alot of instruments in my life, when i can afford them of course.

My primary instrument is trumpet.
http://www.derekrohaly.com/audio/Travelin_Light.mp3
Me playing lead trumpet 2 years ago. It was some shitty mic so it may not sound too full. (yeah, it's the song with that hot singer chick)

I always wanted to pursue the French Horn more, but I never got around to getting past a middle school level.


I can play simple piano stuff and do "classical improving" from my theory classes.

I compose songs for vocals and other quartet groups. I did a jazz band arrangement for Silent Night, but I didn't enjoy it too much...it was A LOT of work. I have mucho respect for those people.

I've played harmonica for little over 2 years now and improved on the harmonica a few times in jazz band which was a lot of fun.


Play the penny whistle (the flute like instrument in Celine Dion's "my heart will go on" and other irish tunes). biggrin:
