I always wanted to play guitar but never could afford the lesson so I started learning myself, progress was slow but Ive been playing for 6 years now and have got pretty decent and now I am in a band doing vocals and guitar which is awesome, and somewhere along the way I have learn drum, bass and keyboard. I'd advise you get into bands even if you get nowhere its pretty awesome and fun.

Being in a band is the best way to improve and it keeps you motivated to keep getting better and if you write music (as I do) it also helps you write better, playing songs infront of an audience you see from their reactions which songs work and which dont, especially if its an audience that fits in well with your genre of music. Anyways my band are reasonably new and are called State Of A Nation! We are a 3 piece punk/rock band with an old school Green Day sound (or so we have been told). We have one song currently on our facebook page, hopefully it will be more soon but if you want to check us out the page is www.facebook.com/stateofanation let me know what you think if you visit the page :)

First off, welcome to mylot. I love to play. I play several different types of instruments. I can play a flute, piccilo (i think that is how its spelled), drums, guitar, clarinet. It relaxes me to play. I think the next instrument I learn is a saxaphone. That would be neat.

I play only the guitar. My friend helped me learn it first and then I started progressing by myself. I'm okay in skill because I spend most of my time singing and playing at the same time. It's hard but manageable. Hope you do well!
