Since we have this board here and the only mention of music so far seems to be listing song lyrics, I was wondering how many of you play any instruments or otherwise perform musically. Iāll start with my bragging:
Iāve been playing bass guitar for ten years now, took lessons in jazz bass for a couple years, and played for a few years in a punk/alternative band that had limited local following. I also sang back-up, and have slowly been honing my singing ability, which has involved having to accept that my voice canāt venture far from low octaves. I think I can sing well enough to do lead now, but perhaps only if I stick to punk. Iām looking to get a band together right now, with a friend who also plays bass.
Through practice and one Anthro/Music class, Iāve gained some skill with large hand drums like congas and djembes. Iād say in that regard Iām better than most people who think they can drum but canāt (such as so many people in the neopagan community Iāve run across), but by no means am I talented.
