Other musicians here?

[blakealridge]

Share your music
I’ll go first

or if anonymity is an issue which it probably is with like every single other person here, just share the kind of music you make, instruments you play, stories from shows you’ve played, etc. And go!

Cool music Charlee, I love the vocals especially! I've half-learned a few instruments over the years but nothing serious. I am a huge music fan though and I did end up singing for an indie band for a number of years. We put out a couple small releases and toured Canada and the US a few times and it was a lot of fun but it was a huge commitment and we were far from ever making money doing it. I sometimes miss performing but I'm happy to just be in the audience these days (although who knows when I can even do that again...)

Ya see guys, the ladies never react like that when you send them a dick pic....heh he.

Charlee, thank you it is a beauty and sounds incredible! Gibson got it right in '58! . I'll tell you the story of how I came to acquire a genuine '58 Les Paul and the story involves camels, a drunk US Army officer, and a yakuza crime boss. But you'll have to wait for our date.

Fun fact of this guitar is that it is one serial number off from the one owned by Legendary guitar god Mark Knopfler and of course you hear his gut bucket on his 80's smash Money for Nothing. I can only dream of his talent somehow rubbing off on me...lol.

Here's the master himself shredding it fine on his '58 Paul along with a face melting solo. Oh and Clapton's no slouch on his Strat!

IS THIS YOU?????

Only if you are into role playing. I love the end of that ballad ... the lyrics about gratitude and expectations

Many years ago when I played in bands around here in Metro Vancouver, I ( we) made a completed 3 song Demo that was then shopped around. We then had more recorded material but never made it onto a actual demo for various reasons. But, I won't display them on here due to possibility of recognition. And what I mean by recognition, friends or colleagues who I may have played with during my local club playing yrs and could possibly be on perb lol. Only they would know those songs. Highly unlikely that they are on perb but.....one can never know.

Yes! I miss them as well, whether a nice small and quiet venue or a stadium! Which concert is the most memorable for you? What are some you've been to?
Mine is AC/DC at River Plate in 2009 and they actually released that one on DVD, I was down there playing with my Rugby team in a Pan American tournament and the Argentinians that hosted us took us there! Fuck I think my ears orgasmed that night!
Check this out, one of the first AC/DC songs I learned. I fuckin' rocked so hard that night I couldn't talk for a day later...LOL

Not a musician but a life long artist. When it comes to a long range of music and musicians I have been listening to, and I admit lately just a few because I just got tired of the strong opinionated voices of the musicians, there a a few that I used to listen to religiously but now just truly sporadically. Why you can ask me, I don't know.... Music lost its appeal to me. Too much game in it? Play? Empty superficial play? Self importance? To get into peoples faces with your attitude? Well, that's not my cut of tea, so as as an artist, that musician angle of needing to getting into once face never appealed to me. My 2c. Will post a couple of v ids of I like later.

Lol UK SUBS are extremely political and outspoken
Example:

Good musicians and artists have and always will be political.

Good musicians and artists have and always will be political. I don't agree with that.

I do love your musical message, and damn, I love your voice!! I No shit, I am actually taken aback by that, I did check your videos and sounds and I really like your voice.

Singing songs about flowers and insects, concepts, dreams, desires, personal experiences, make all that they do, not artists because they when they do, they are personal and not political? 0r perhaps, a personal agenda grows up to such an extend that it seems political, and must be mentioned, despite little necessity and being misplaced?

 

[iliketravel]

Music an any artist will never need or be politiCAL. That' the wrong part that you have, point blank as I see. Unless they choose to.

Absolutely, the whole genre of the UK Subs and many other bands in that group spoke out against the ills of society, for example this one by the Gang of Four's comment on mass consumerism.
