Any musical talent out there?

[CMC Airboss]

Been playing guitar for 23 years after starting early in high school.   Studied with Gary Hoey and Brian Alex (Rahilly).  I did stints in metal, progressive rock, and alternative bands plus a 2 year gig in an acoustic duo.

Played guitar since college, but not hardly at all in the last few years. I did play a mean version of Metallicas 'Battery' and Anthraxs 'Among the Living' though this week to demo a Ibanez I was selling. Worked too.

It was fun to play again. I'm going to use the cash to put down on a Jackson, something I've wanted for years.

Jackson's are sweet.  I just got one last year.  Complements my Charvel nicely.  One is the opposite of the other.  Black vs white.  Right vs Left headstock.  Right oriented vs left oriented shark fin inlays.  I just might have to post a pick latter.  They look awesome next to each other...

I've been playing drums for almost 20 years now. Right now I'm playing with two cover bands because they make money money money!

Back in the Mid to late 90's I played with a band out of Milwaukee called Bender. That was pretty much the peak of my musical carrer. The Band got signed to TVT Records but unfourtanitly for me, I parted ways with them before they went on to do any cool stuff.  I played drums on their one any only TVT realease. Out of the 12 songs on that album I played on 10 and didnt get paid one red cent. I'm still pissed off about that, but I'm more mad at myself that I didnt stick it out for two more months. The band did flop bigtime but it still sucks that I missed out on the Queensrych, Nicklebank and Three Doors Down tours.

One of the songs I played on was on the 3000 MIles To Graceland soundtrack.

I guess the moral of the story is if you belive in something stick it out. Dont listen to what other people have to say, I did and Imissed out on a lot of cool stuff.

I play trombone in a Big Band and tuba in a Pops Orchestra - been playing about 20 years now.  Also lay piano and alto/soprano sax every now and then.  I have a trumpet that I keep around too.

Anyone into Jamie Aebersold?  Great stuff for jazz chops

That's pretty damn good biz. Why'd you quit?

My brother-in-law plays the Madison/Milwaukee cover band scene as a drummer. Just bars and stuff though.

Woohoo another mando-geek!

 I own 3 mandolins (a weber and 2 finished kit mandos), 2 more stewmac mando kits (soon to be built), 4 fiddles of various sorts, and a piano.  The kids play the piano and I attempt to play the fiddle and mandolin.

The mando is definitely a fun little instrument!

I didnt really want to quit, real life was kicking me in the bellybutton at the time. I took a job that wouldnt let me practice or play gigs as much as they would of liked. I was in a jam, either choose the band or my job. It was a good job and I was afraid to quit so I stayed there.

A year and a half later I was laid off and I was pissed LOL.

What's the name of your Brother In Law's band???
