| Dilemmas, Electric Guitars And Recording
So I like my friend, but I'm pretty sure she only likes me as a friend. Not sure if I should tell her how I feel, and the wrinkle is we have a class all year together, so I'm stressin'. On a lighter note, I borrowed my uncle's electric guitar to teach myself on. Also I borrowed his multi-track recording rig. This is kinda what my stuff is based around, it's all on solo piano right now. I don't know the most theory so my compositions need work. But yeah, a mixture of jazz, post-rock, classical and avant-garde. These are the artists I would say "influence" me. | | 1 | Frederic Chopin | | 2 | Billy Joel | | 3 | Miles Davis | | 4 | Godspeed You Black Emperor! | | 5 | Elton John | | 6 | Oscar Peterson | | 7 | Kayo Dot | |

08.17.09 | For the record I don't claim to be nearly as good as any of these bands. I'm a pretty good pianist, and my stuff doesn't really sound like any one of these artists, I just more take what I hear and amalgamate it into what I just come up with.

08.17.09 | umm, you record, show it to us on sputnik. I'd love to hear it.
The girl? Just hang out with her in your class this year and go along as it feels necessary. | willfellmarsy
08.17.09 | let the girl think you're into someone else in the class or just tell her it's someone in the class and examine her response...don't let it linger though, the longer you hold out for her the more chance you will waste your year on a girl who's not into you... | LepreCon
08.17.09 | You probably will have to just tell her if it gets to the point where you really cannot contain yourself. The chances of you succeeding are greater than failure, believe me. Nice to hear from a fellow pianist. How long have you been playing, and did you take lessons or are you self-taught? | ninjuice
08.18.09 | Do what willfellmarsy said, and just to be sure about the response, read a book on body language or watch Lie to Me a LOT. lol | thebhoy
08.18.09 | yeah, once I record stuff and put on my computer I'll probably put it up here. I've been playing for.. shit like 14, 15 years. I had private lessons, never did conservatory but I would be around Grade 8. And so I told the girl, it had been brewing for sometime. And got the old, "You're one of my best friends". FAIL. Oh well, move on. | CompanionCube
08.18.09 | write a song about it | thebhoy
08.18.09 | lol
