I’m liking this thread very much.

Metallica taught me how to play guitar. Not personally of course. I would hole myself up in my room and listen to song after song until i could play it.

[/QUOTE]Indeed.

Hey, Bass counts! I have a 5 string Bass that I try to play, it counts!! It’s harder to play (physically) than the Violin, (which I try to play also) and the Bass guitar is truly under appreciated. Music without Bass is like saying Wine is good, without the water in it.

No wait…you wouldn´t piss in beer now would ya?

Ok…maybe that depends on the beer…:doh:

#36

Huh?

#37

Ah…you mean this, or this, or this, or maybe this :eek:

[RIGHT]<-- can see pretty much
everything has been
covered except that
the world does not
yet have a worthy
pissed-in-the-beer
guitar-based song![/RIGHT]

#38

NO NO NO, I meant REAL WINE without WATER, that stuff isn’t music!! I had no awareness of such stuff, ewww. Bad simile, bad, bad, simile.
