Actually I'm a guitarist too, left a post in this thread about it, but I guess bass player's don't talk too much to guitarist's as they did'nt even acknowledge that I left a post.

Altho I'm more of a metal guitarist, I'm a big fan of SRV too. What a great blue's player. Too bad he left us when he was just reaching his pinnacle.

Cheers,

WarBuddy out

Status: offline 		War buddy, you DO have a point about relations between bassists/guitarists. Usually the coversations are on the line of "What key are YOU playing in?" or "Was that an augmented or DEmented chord?" I'm exaggerating, of course, but only slightly. ;) To drummers, though, it's a different story. "Count off 4 and then follow me", or non-verbal hand (or finger) signals. :D

Now there's an instrument for a war gamer! That's something I always wanted to learn how to play

Status: offline 		If you mean bagpipes, that's one of my favorite instruments. There's nothing quite so stirring as a good rendition of "Scotland the Brave", nor quite as heartrending as the pipes playing "Amazing Grace". More to the point, bagpipes HAVE been featured in a rock band. Does anyone remember "It's a Long Way to the Top (if you wanna rock n roll)" by AC/DC? Lead bagpipes in that one, allegedly played by Bon Scott himself. It's both hilarious and hard rocking.

Status: offline 		Some of you guys were talking about Stevie Ray Vaughn. No doubt one of the best ever and it's a shame he left this world so early. So much talent. But, there is another. Have you guys heard Kenny Wayne Shepherd? He's not SRV but he's great. And those who don't like blues will like him too. Do yourself a favor and listen to some of his music. He's definately a musician's musician.

(Dang, I keep forgetting to change my quote.)

Status: offline 		Ya, Dave. Kenny Wayne Shepherd is also very good. Especially for his age. Every summer my good friend Mike always puts on a blues fest with alot of good BBQ at his house. We get a bunch of guy's together and hammer out some blues tunes for that get together. Last year one of the songs we played was Blue on Black. While an easy song to play, its got a good melody. The solo is very tasty.

Yep, he's a good guitarist.

Status: offline 		I've been playing acoustical guitar for nearly 35 years, classical, folk, soft rock, blues, country. (You'd think I'd be better than I am :rolleyes: ).

Started playing to impress the girls. I continued because classical guitar is just so cool. :cool:

Now, I don't give a rats a$$ if the girls are impressed or not. :D

Status: offline 		Got room in this thread for a "serious" musician (longhair terminology, not necessarily mine)? I play all brass (primary instrument is French horn), all keyboards (esp. piano and organ), I sing, I conduct, and I compose. Oh, yeah, bassoon, too, although that's been 15 years, now. Plan next to take up fiddle, to play bluegrass.

I was classically trained too. Used to haul my bass violin on a Flexible Flyer back and forth to school across the frozen wastelands of Bloomington Minnesota so I could practice. (Ok so even then Bloomington was suburbia but still....)

Can't sing a lick, much to the dismay of my favorite conductor who used to make us sing our parts.

I've been thinking about taking up the fiddle for the same reason, bluegrass. No way can I play bluegrass guitar. Can't pick that fast. Those guys are just sick.
