[Guest jamo-chelsea]

Heya, this is my first post here so be nice

i'm Chelsea, and since we're on the topic of music, i'm a musician..well atleast my boy side is(haven't had a chance with this side of me yet) when i'm with friends.

dew influences are coheed and cambria, rush, HIM, mammal(aussie aussie aussie!) RooK, Eric Clapton(god) crosby stills nash and young, godsmack and davenport cabinet.

just you know i'm still confused as to what i really am inside, and thus haven't come out to any of my friends-though my mum knows about it i freaked out when she first wanted me to see a therapist and that was almost 2 years ago.

anyway, i play guitar and sing in a progressive rock/funk? band, and i'd really like to take that somewhere but in reality only one of the other members would accept me cause he's an open minded kinda guy and is BI anyway.

did i mention i'm from Australia?

this is the first time i've been able to talk to a bunch of like minded people, and i'm really grateful for the opportunity.

Chelsea, welcome to Laura's. You found a great place to be, for a number of reasons.

First, we've got a whole lot of musicians, Brenda being just the first that you've met.

Second, there are quite a few members from Australia and New Zealand, including Rachael,

one of my best friends here.

Third, there are a lot of resources on this site, including forums, chat rooms and resource pages, so

look around and make yourself comfortable.

Fourth, you don't have to worry about being confused or not knowing which direction is right for

you. You don't need to know for sure, and no one here will pressure you. Find your own answers

at your own speed. Ask questions, and someone will give you their best answer. You're among friends.

Hey Chels,

I am a musician too, I play trumpet for almost 40 years now, lead and jazz in a big band and just recently principle trumpet in an orchestra for the first time in 28 years.

Sit down and have a cup of cocoa and some of my fresh baked cookies.

There will be a lot of friendly people coming by pretty soon so you might want to take an extra cookie now.

We are here to support each other, ask and answer questions and just to have a place to be ourselves and have a little fun.

Welcome to the family.

Love ya,

Sally

Hey Chelsea,

Now that there are newer people than me, I get to welcome somebody. Welcome to the forums! So far, I think you've come to the right place. Lots to explore, lots of people to talk to. Oh, I'm a sometimes musician myself - piano. I think there are a lot of musicians around here. I agree about Eric Clapton. Welcome to the Playground.
