Guitar. Used to be in a band, "Bolly Shayde and the Screaming Belly Vultures." I was rhythm guitar, backup vocals, and emergency percussion. Does anyone remember our single, "Love Will Give You Ulcers"? We also cut an album, "Vinyl Days".

Me!
If only because I was in the States until I was twelve...I played the recorder from 4th to 6th grade.

I was too. I hated it, lol.

Lol!

Why did you hate it? It isn't a hard instrument to learn.

It's not hard, but it certainly is annoying.

am i the only one here who doesnt know what a recorder is?

@veldrynus:
you should mess around with acoustics too before you get too far into electrics. really strengthens your fingers and builds up those calluses.

Recorder.

looks kindof dull.. but i guess that could be said about any instrument...

Omega_Destroyer · Unread postby **Omega_Destroyer** » 30 Jun 2007, 21:10

It was dull. We were forced to play it and it was dreadful. How I grew to hate "The Lion Sleeps Tonight."

I still have my practice book and recorder around here...somewhere.

We used to play songs like "Amazing Grace" on the recorder.

YUp. I only took it in grade 5. Haven't taken a music class since.

The Mad Dragon · Unread postby **The Mad Dragon** » 01 Jul 2007, 12:21

They burn? I thought it was more of a melt really.

soupnazii · Unread postby **soupnazii** » 01 Jul 2007, 18:55
