I can play acoustic guitar somewhat. I'm not good, but i can play a little. ^^

[jyuukai]

I find the acoustic to be better than electric cause you can plug it in to make it sound electric. But mine is old, it doesn't have the jack

[strike7785]

I can play the Flute Saxaphone and piano
I have the ability to play anything that my ears can hear
I would like to learn how to play Suzuka but havn't had the time latley.

[jyuukai]

My piano skills are limited because I took classes for about a semester but I couldn't go again. I wanna go back next year

[aezgaga]

I play Guitar and piano

I play Don't look back in anger by Oasis , With me by Sum41 and Rock you like a hurricane by scorpion. I play many random song on piano but my favorite are from FFX :Suteki da ne and To Zanarkand ^^


I want to learn song who song nice and not boring to play lol for now I just try to be better in those that I already play ^^

[fejknick]

I have done allot of songs thats just for fun where we try to make people laugh. They are the best ones.

[suigintou]

Uh, what? You can't plug in an acoustic guitar. An electric acoustic, yes. But not a plain acoustic. And there's no such thing as "sounding electric." There's no single sound to it. An electric guitar has thousands of different sounds.

[fejknick]

I wish i had Bob Dylan's voice. :(

[suigintou]

I wish i had Bob Dylan's voice. :(

That's surprising to hear these days. Most people tend to cringe at his voice. I personally enjoy it, but the voice isn't what Bob Dylan is about. It's the lyrics. Dylan's lyrics are such perfection that "Dylan" is like a genre of lyricism all on its own.

Yeah. But imagine the lyrics not being sung by dylan. That would just be weird. Dylan is and will be king in my eyes.

What's garageband?

[Zaraki]

What's garageband?

it's a program that comes w/ the new imac computers. it has pre-recorded instruments that are in loops. comes w/ a nice range of instruments and genres. you can put those loops together to make a song. yes you can make techno but you have to buy another instrument pack. if you have the right microphones and all that for recording you can record one of your bands songs and remix them or add some synthesizers.

you can also take a song from your favorite artist or band and make remix versions. if you have a MIDI keyboard you can go into garageband and make up your own instrument. it's a fun program to mess around in if you have nothing else to do.

i'll post some screen shots.

Yes, GarageBand is actually quite fun and easy to use. It's really easy to create some cool electronic beats now and then if you have the time and dedication. I use it once in a blue moon. It's one of the coolest extra features of OS X.

Actually, GarageBand is not exclusive to the iMac, and it's not new. GarageBand has been a standard on OS X for a couple years now. I have it on my Macbook.

And the extra instrument pack is free.

You can do that, sure. Just be aware that recording is only as good as your microphone set-up.

Luck don't come EASY.
It hurt my ears to hear, these, words. GOOOOOD LUUUUCK.
You cant see, my eyes behind my skull and bones.... maaaaask.
I.. TAKE....YOUR...SOULS... Now you're empty pointless machines entwined with the shit you call FEEEELINGS.

Good luck, nothing but false lies in-front of your eyes.
Entwined with hate, i feel no pain.
Good luck, nothing but lights (IN FRONT OF YOUR EYES)
Hail to the king baby. (OSIRIS)


...

Hum, i could use what i just wrote as a beginning. Thx zaraki

[jyuukai]

If you can't write any new material, do a cover. That's what I do. If I can't make a new song in time for a show, I do a cover like an Avril or Red Jumpsuit Apparatus or something...

Time for this to be revived...

Do any of you musicians know where I can find the chords/tabs for "Kiss Me" I forget who sang it...

[Jikan]

- What instrument(s) do you play?
I play guitar, sing, drums, keyboard

- What songs can you play?
Way to early...lol, but I can play a wide variety. Right now I'm mainly focusing on the ones my band and I have put together.

- What songs are you learning to play?
All the songs I'm learning are the ones we're learning in my band at the moment.

-What songs do you want to learn to play?
Nothing in particular right now, other then wanting to compose a really good song...I spend time each week trying to put together my songs.

I guess I could have just summed it up for you and said everything I'm doing at the moment is for my band, but it's pretty early and I stayed up all night so I'm not thinking clearly right now haha..

[Ykzier]

Let's seee...

I play guitar. I previously played trombone for my school band, and I HATED it =_=... and I plan to take up playing cello. I also sing death metal, but not as much as guitar.

Currently, I can play "Silent Night, Bodom Night" by Children of Bodom, "14th Concerto in Eb Major: Largo" by Antonio Vivaldi (That is, on guitar), "Sarcophagus" by Nile, and "Only For the Weak" by In Flames, "Lunatic of God's Creation" by Deicide, "final Fantasy 1 Opening Theme" and "Vincent's Theme" by Nobuo Uematsu, "Masticated By the Spasticated" by Gorerotted, and "Vicer Exciser" by Whitechapel. There are more songs, but I don't want to list them. I also write my own music.

I am learning to play "Blooddrunk" by Bodom, "Together As One" by Death, "Guardians of Fate" by Ensiferum, and "Nothing Left" by Norther.

I would love to learn/Be able to play anything from Necrophagist or Spawn of Possession.

Haha, I appreciate the hat-tip! I've never had one tip their hat to me before. I actually played Silent Night, Bodom Night for my school talent show last year. I didn't win. I didn't even get a place. Regardless, I subjected all the rap, emo, deathcore fans to awesome music.

[jyuukai]

I am actually glad that people are reviving this thread...

I have actually recently learned to play "Rangers" and "Near to You" both by A Fine Frenzy...They're originally piano songs and that's where I can play 'em but I'm trying to get a guitar version but it's proving a bit difficult...

[Zebro-X]
