Yeah, I've been playing it for 3 years, it's gonna be weird without it.

Been hooked on some Meddle right now, listened to it during study hall today. One of These Days is so different fromt he rest of Floyd's stuff... and so fu[font=]cking[/font] awesome too :thumb: Echoes is an awesome song as well... and Fearless... and Pillow of WInds... and San Tropez... and Seamus isn't bad... Hell, the whole album kicks a[font=]ss[/font] :smoke:[/QUOTE]

This DSOTM thing is alot harder than I thought it would be. What does the moon represent? Insanity? I can't decide if the underlying theme is that everyone is inherently evil, or that everyone will die after living a meaningless life, or they will live a prosperous life and go insane

I played the trumpet, baritone, and tuba in middle school.

I was one cool cat.

It could be seen as existentialism. That could work as a good theme. Money, Us and Them,...

I like all those classes except for math, and I've got a good math teacher so it's all right. Although we got a new choir (and also vocal jazz, and she also directs the musical) teacher....our last one was awesome and she was also very good looking. We sorta had a thing going in a way. I kissed her a couple times. School starts tomorrow for me. I'm not looking forward to getting up that early, but I'm excited for it to start.

edit- I also got 8/10 on that quiz. I'll admit that I guessed on a couple that I got right.

Traditionally, the moon symbolizes insanity. Latin word for moon- Luna. Lunatic is a derivitive of that. Illmatic, I think I'll be borrowing that idea once school starts for me. I'll post my schedule once I can find it.

/hasn't started school yet

[QUOTE=Woodstock]5 and counting.[/QUOTE]Yeah acctually its 4 for me.

Gr.6,7,8,9.

Very very nice list there Illmatic! It's easier for me to name albums, instead of songs....I'd say my top five are:

Blood on the Tracks
Blonde on Blonde
Highway 61 Revisted
The Freewheelin Bob Dylan
Bringin It All Back Home

Last night me and my friends decided to mix classical music with Bob Marley...it sounded pretty cool because you could just focus on one or both. Then when the Marley CD ended we all jammed on guitars (2 acoustics, one electric) with the classical music in the background.

I wish I would've picked up guitar earlier. I picked it up last September, when I was 14.

I started playing when I was about 14, and I don't regret it.

I started last year when I was 14.

14. Do I notice a pattern...

The guitar forum here, has helped me improve, and has given me loads of info.


Not to mention this thread, and others.

I started playing guitar when I was fourteen. I played piano for about four or five years before that, which I think helped my guitar playing a lot. As a guitar teacher, I've noticed that starting to play guitar before the age of 12 really doesn't help all that much, it'd just be better to play piano when you were younger. It's mainly because a lot of eight year olds find it very hard to understand the concept of quarter notes being half the length of half notes, and eight notes and all that. Plus they can never remember scales and their hands are too small to make chords unless they have a mini guitar.

edit- Plus simple songs on piano are easier than simple songs on guitar.

I'm going the opposite way---I started guitar first, then tried to learn how to play the piano.

[QUOTE=JonG]I wish I would've picked up guitar earlier. I picked it up last September, when I was 14.[/QUOTE]

I picked it up two Septembers ago, when I was thirteen.

I'm pretty lazy, so I'm not very good. I intend to practis harder this year.

I started guitar when I was 13, suckas :p

I picked up a bass at 15 after quitting trombone at 14. I wasn't really even a closet hippie then, the idea never occoured to me until one day when I said "I'm going to learn how to play bass today" to my nerdy friends at lunch. They didn't beleive me, man, did I show them :p I pretty much learned how to play guitar last year at my lesiure. I don't really say "I play guitar" although accoring to most non-players, I do. I need to learn more chords really. I have been spending most of my time on harmonica lately, it's a good use of my trombone-ear skills

i picked up drums almost 2 years ago. but it doesnt seem that long ago. and i started guitar about a year ago and pretty much all i can do is solo quite well and play some basic chords.

I just burned this for my dad this morning. I guess I should've listened to it more closely before.

[QUOTE=Illmatic]I'm going the opposite way---I started guitar first, then tried to learn how to play the piano.[/QUOTE]

Yeah I still play piano/organ, although I'm not nearly as good as I used to be. I am fairly good at writing my own songs with a piano, but I'm basically useless when it comes to playing off sheet music now.

I first started paino when i was 11 , and i didnt like it , so i Quit , then when i was 12 ( 2 years ago ) i started playin guitar and loved it , so ive been stickin with it since . ( i hope to become famous :lol: )
