..... Are wannabe/closet musicans?

I know a lot of guitarists on this forum.
What about you?
What do you play, and do/did you ever aspire to play pro?
Lets hear your story.

Peace,

I've played piano since I was 8 (17 years and going). I wanted to write video game music for awhile but I didn't get far with that. Writing music is still a passion but unfortunately, after having to sell my piano it's been tough. Touch tone on a keyboard isn't exact comparable with a real piano that's for sure.

Cool, I love keyboard players.
Sorry about your piano, but maybe you could get like an old electric just to keep your chops up until....

I've played both acoustic and electric guitar in music class in school. In my free time I like to fire up the karaoke machine and sing. I've been told I'm actually really good and should audition for american idol.

I grew up in a family of musicians so...

- Started on piano when I was 3
- Music degree - jazz performance and studies (guitar)
Played in a few bands back in the day...

(in retrospect my guidance counselor should have been shot for that - LOL! Decided I'd rather eat and have a place to live so I jumped over to programming not long after graduation. Though sometimes I wish I'd gone into the business side ...)

Lots of closet musicians in tech, especially programmers/developers. The 2 disciplines have much more in common than you might think.

My dad who's 65 started a band when he was 16 with some friends that they played in a garage. Then when my dad was off fighting in the war his older brother sold his "My dad's" guitar for drug money.

My dad is actually a great singer as well and I'm sure he could've made it as a country music singer if he had pursued the career.

I've thought about trying out for a local talent show and getting up on that stage for the heck of it. I do enjoy singing and sing a long everytime the radio plays.

I can "kinda" sing and I like to write music. My dad moved back home a few years ago and left me his Yamaha guitar. I wish I had time to learn how to play. One day my friends, one day
