MoP is the only true drummer around here!!!

I play lead guitar in several bands these days, everyone seems to suck at playing instruments round here which is why im in several bands. It sucks as no one can really teach my anything new on guitar anymore. The locla guitar teachers suck, all they do is teach you basic chords and 1940 type songs which suck! There were some awesome guitarists at Sound Control in Birmingham however [lol]

i started piano for a year then stopped, then my uncle lent me his guitar with a
begginners book, its an acoustic, but my bro tried to tune it to the piano, but it was already tuned, so now it sounds crappy, and i cant tune it. I also played the recorder in third grade, but that was long ago.

Drums [:)] well, at least I like to think I can play the drums haha. I don't have a drum kit myself as that would cost money and thats something I don't have in massive abundence cus I spend it all on football, games and theme parks. However, there is a drum kit at school I like to go and mess around with sometimes [;)]

masterchief101 - Your brother tried to tune your guitar to piano, lmao wtf! Ive heard some crazy guitar tunings but havnt heard of anyone playing in chromatic tuning. Just tune the strings to E-A-D-G-B-e on the second octave of your piano, that should get it back in tune for ya

I'ma bassist of two years, if you didnt guess from my avatar. Ive played in a rock band before now, but i prefer the jazz. My warwick streamer is my prze possesion.

I also, to addculture, play the double bass(a giant violin for you simpletants) which is quite possibly the coolest instrument there is. I prefer jazz, but play some classical stuff too. It's all good

Wow,looks like we both like the same kind of music,rock.Personally my favorite band is either AC/DC or Van Halen.

I've also been playing electric guitar for about a year.
