i haven't quite started, but I guess I'm somewhere around grade 3-5 now...
yeahh i like playing ad-lib.. it's like, you can just change the music as you like, so long as you keep within the umm, keys and whatever...
tied down..? hmm until when... i'm sure one day you can do the same or you could teach.. like i saw u were looking for students I've got an uncle who's already fifty odd years old, but as he played the electric guitar in a band in his younger days, he's now teaching the electric guitar in a music school it's never too late to start and drumming's such a popular thing among young pple nowadays.. I've got alot of people around me wanting to learn drumming more than playing the guitar you've got good prospects tooOriginally posted by juvejazzman:career in music!! excellent! all the way! i wish i could do the same... but i'm tied down to the damn airforce.
but anyway music career as a pianist is good prospects coz u do both melody and rhythm. us drummers only do rhythm and thus we ultimately need a band.
got offered a temp job at carnegie's bar but my guitarist couldnt make it, so had to turn it down... real waste... they're interested in the blues scene too so u may wanna check em out, perhaps get a job too...
tied down till i'm 30 or so... scholarship lo wat to do... kena brainwash in ocs lor... haiyah...Originally posted by MooKu:tied down..? hmm until when... i'm sure one day you can do the same or you could teach.. like i saw u were looking for students I've got an uncle who's already fifty odd years old, but as he played the electric guitar in a band in his younger days, he's now teaching the electric guitar in a music school it's never too late to start and drumming's such a popular thing among young pple nowadays..
