I will have to get a guitar for myself sometime... or my wife will get it for me.. :)

I can't read music either. But I can play the flute and the sax and the clarinet. I taught myself by listening to a song over and over again, until I just figured it out. I was in Band for 3 years, and failed every year because I couldn't read sheet music. Didn't matter that I could play just as good as the first stringers. :rolleyes:

I'd have to say:

Snake Piss - My Bag.

It's my band.

Which one are you?

slapshot_oi · May 19, 2010, 06:10 AM

Thanks!

I'm the drummer.

J_9 · May 19, 2010, 06:14 AM

I like too, but who is the dead dude with the brown hat on? Wish we could see more of the band.

Aurora_Bell · May 19, 2010, 12:01 PM

LOL J!! Ya the video definitely made me nauseous.

slapshot_oi · May 19, 2010, 02:21 PM

I don't know who filmed it, he didn't do a very good job.

Here's another one from over a year ago, it was my GNR cover band. I was wearing a wig. Sound is awful

Cocaine Tongue - Rocket Queen

I can actually teach you right on this site, how to be able to jam using jazz and/or folk melodies, chords and rhythms with anyone so that both persons would be successful. It would be a win-win situation!

The other person, or both, would need to be able to play the notes on a keyboard of some kind in the simple way that I would teach them to play them.

Since you already play some on the guitar, you could use that, too!

Do you still have those instruments, Aurora_Bell?

Thanks!

Clough · May 19, 2010, 05:49 PM

When I have a faster connection, I would like to be able to listen to your band, slapshot_oi!

I do, just not the flute. But I would need to get some new reids.

Clough · May 19, 2010, 11:46 PM

Are you interested in playing the instruments that you still have, Aurora_Bell?

Aurora_Bell · May 20, 2010, 04:11 AM

Oh yes I pick them up all the time, fool around, learn new songs, try to remember old ones. Why do you ask?

Clough · May 20, 2010, 12:07 PM

I ask because I'm wondering if you would like to learn how to read music that's written for them?

Aurora_Bell · May 20, 2010, 12:09 PM

Wow. Do you think you can teach me? I took band class for 3 years! I would love to try!

Clough · May 20, 2010, 12:14 PM

Yes! I can teach you!

It would need to be the subject of another thread, though.

Aurora_Bell · May 20, 2010, 12:21 PM

Great Clough, that sounds awesome. Let me get some new reids over the week end. And I will start a thread Monday morning. I suppose I would DL video's to YouTube?

Clough · May 20, 2010, 12:26 PM

We'll need to discuss things...

You might not need to download anything to YouTube, but I'm not sure at this point.

I'll be back on here in about eight hours. Need to go tune a piano for a customer, go to a rehearsal and then a meeting.

Thanks!

Aurora_Bell · May 20, 2010, 12:27 PM

Talk to you then!
