Rod in Toronto Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Youtube video or it didn´t happen... Just kidding, Earl, it´s great that you managed to pull it off. I´d be bragging about it in every internet forum there was if I was able to play those albums! I think I have a musical mind...it´s a shame that living in a third world country my priority has always been to focus on my career and leave all the fun behind. My parents were completely against me pursuing any kind of music interest. I´m 40 years old now, and thinking about learning an instrument... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Dad Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 I played bass on a semi professional level for several years. The hardest thing to do. I mean the hardest thing to do is find musicians you are musically and personally compatible with. I can play he bass and i can sing but not at the same time. I havent really played for 17 years.

JARG Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Send me a recording of you playing something and I'll overdub some bass and guitar - just make something up! We can pass it to JARG for some solos. Can anybody sing? I suck as a singer. Dude! That's awesome! How do I send a recording? iPhone? I'm not the most computer savvy guy! JARG is a guitarist? I am so glad I wrote this thread. I bet a 90% of everyone on here plays something!! COOL!! I dabble a bit. ;) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HemiBeers Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 (edited) it's ironic that playing my guitar and my sex life have so much in common...not too often, but I always feel better afterwards. maybe i should try both at the same time...double my pleasure, double my fun. ;) Edited April 25, 2015 by 2112FirstStreet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleMoon Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I've been playing Rush songs ever since I got the first album of theirs, which was AFTK. I cut my metaphorical bass teeth on Geddy's playing. Still today it's the one thing I can go back to and it always keeps my interest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHHEAD666 Posted April 26, 2015 Author Share Posted April 26, 2015 Oh I think "Cinderella Man" is fun to play. Amen brotha! Not a drummer, but it's a blast on guitar! Why are all the cool musicians so far away? I can't find shit in Northern California! I'm cursed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHHEAD666 Posted April 26, 2015 Author Share Posted April 26, 2015 I can only play with myself and can't sing either :( .

RUSHHEAD666 Posted April 26, 2015 Author Share Posted April 26, 2015 wow, you have a drumkit at work? that's awesome. Thanks! Yes! I'm a lucky guy even though I can't find a band!

RUSHHEAD666 Posted April 26, 2015 Author Share Posted April 26, 2015 Good for you, Earl! Thanks Lorraine! RUSH ON! I'm addicted now. I played "Hemispheres" again. I lack common sense. The more I play the record the better I get! LOL! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see myself getting back into playing after I retire..which is in a year. :7up: Do it buddy! Playing the drums is great for your mind and you body!! My fukking right thumb is bleeding and won't heal from trying to emulate the insanity of Neil's ride cymbal on the "Hemispheres" record. The greatest album of all time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I can figure it out but man I'm really not into showboating. I had a hard time writing this thread but I felt so good about it.I could probably really get good if I played to "Hemispheres" like 25 times a week! Dude, I'm 47 and I feel like I'm 18 years old! Not to be a downer but this is why my wife is going to leave me. I'M NEVER GOING TO GROW UP!! FUKK IT! I love my rock and roll, my sports. my brewskis and my drums!! My wife turned 40 over a year ago and she changed! She put the WALL UP on me. I will never change!! Rod!! Start playing an instrument! Learn the guitar and get a bassist! I'm coming to Brazil baby! LOL! Cheers! Damn it's late again! I promise to behave. Hell everyone's in bed now on here! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
