Instrument of choice

Just wondering what instrument does everyone play (when you're not on here trading insults and arguing politics)? :)

Me, I'm a bassist, play some keyboards, and sing some.

Welcome to bandmix Peg. Pay no attention to us grouchy old farts LOL! There are some folks on this site that love to stir the pot of emotion. There is also a lot of good advise to be had here. I love and play a Fender American Strat. I have other guitars but the Strat is my weapon of choice! I also play acoustic, sing and play bass (if only in my imagination).

I'll make noise on anything I can my hands on.
and usually a guitar is closest at hand

HI Peg! Where is Sandisfield? I've lived in Mass for 47 years and never heard of it!

Weapon of choice: guitar

As per my pic, drums (which I enjoy making myself), cymbals, and other things which make sound when struck.

As a troll bearing a striking resemblance to Hu Jintao with a phoney mustache, and the name Vinny Violin??? The Violin!

I like your original tune "Diminished Capacity" ... the pair of 7's at the end, nice! :D

makes me want to hear an octatonic sequel in 6/8 with some 9s thrown in! :lol:

i'm a bass player who often masquerades as a gtrst, mandolinist, and vibist. of course there are those who think i masquerade as a bass player as well.

ditto what vinny said re. the odd time on "diminished capacity". interesting tune. that goes for all the originals. kudos on the nice bass tone(s).

That's a good one Jeff, almost as good as when I heard it the first time 30 years ago! You have nothing original, just like your "music". Oh yeah your version of "Europa" sucks ass.

Big ears on you Vinny! Good catch getting that brief 7/4 section at the end. Too funny and absolutely totally strange you said that about the 6/8 and 9/8 because that little 7/4 section was lifted from another tune of mine called "Area Code 796"! Yep, three sections consisting of 7, 9, and six!

say,you haven't been rifling thru my odds and ends recordings, have you now??? :lol:

Thanks for listening to my tunes!
