She plays the mandolin? eeek:


 

Not very well but yes.
Instruments in the house played by various members, mostly not very well are
Kazoo x 5
Upright Piano x 1
Acoustic Guitar x 3
Mandolin x 1
Recorder x 4 (Various from Descant to Treble)
Electric Keyboard (Serious one not kids toys ones) x 1
Electric Guitar x 1
Miramba x 1
Harmonica x 3
Bongo Drums x 1 set of two
Electronic Drum kit x 1


Bet you wish you lived next door. eveilgrin:

Can you all play Tubular Bells together?

I do not have a musical note in my body. The Kazoo is about my limit so no ........ They play ~ I suffer.

To be completely honest I used to play drums, very badly, in my extreme youth.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

Broken strings do not distort a guitar. Anyway they have been replaced. You don't think I'd have that lot available to my lot without spares do you? Strings are cheaper by the dozen on the net and we get through a few.
doh:

No, you'd need 'two slightly distorted guitars' to play tubular bells....  ::)


Please see previous post regarding musical ability.




Oh and I hate Tubular Balls. cussing: I don't think I have ever heard more than about two minutes of it before turning it off or leaving the room. Mrs S, of course, has it on Vinyl, Cassette, CD and for all I know sheet music. I loath it.

I have to say you have dropped a long way in my estimation................. It must be an age thing. As I recall you and Mrs S belong to the same generation.

I must check whether the Gretsch is out of tune, although I didn't feel the quake. What is the electric guitar you have, Snoops?

We used to play it at 3AM when on night shift until the Vicar in the church opposite complained.

We switched to Status Quo. ;D

I would hardly call a Fender "special"! Used, mainly, by players who use its forgiving nature to compensate for their relative lack of ability. Not in all cases - just most.

Tel - Tubular Bells! We will have words later...
