Hey y'all!!

I'm new here, but figured I'd stick my nose in and talk about my musical interests too!! I play keyboards, guitar, fiddle (that's a violin for y'all that ain't from around here!! lol) and I'm workin on learnin the sax. I used to sing, a loooooong time ago. I haven't had much opportunity to do that in recent years, but when I was a teenager, I was in a band and also sang at several local clubs. I still have many of my old recordings and I put one of 'em up online if anyone wants to take a listen. Hope ya like it!! It's one of my all time favorite songs. Here's the link: http://s794.photobucket.com/albums/yy225/x...FacebyKacee.flv

I host it to youtube for you, but no guarantees that many people will see it.

It sounds really good.

Wow!

I listened to the recording and I have to say, I actually liked it better than Roberta Flack's recording (for you youngsters she made the hit recording and I believe that she even wrote it)

Beautiful!

I am a trumpet player myself with a breif (14 year) career as a String Bass player in orchestras, dabble with keyboards and played drims until I sold my set and never could afford a Marimba or vibraphone but I learned them well enough to play a four mallet piece for my percussion jury (final exam in instrumental lessons) in college.

Love ya,

Sally

Hey y'all!!

Thanks for listening and for being here!! Sally, thank you for the great compliment!! And thank you for adding me to your friends lists. As I find my way around here, I'll figure out how to build a list of my own and will add y'all to it. Janelle brought up a good point about YouTube. I actually do have a channel with a lot of my stuff posted. If any of y'all are interested, here's the link:

i play the guitar and bass, and i mess around with the drums alittle.

i want to learn the flute from one of my friends, mainly because i loved mr. tumnus's song from chronicles of narnia.

once i get a computer again (using a ps3) i'll have to listen to the recordings.

what kinda styles do you tend to play when you are on the guitar?

I'm currently in my school choir and I used to play the violin, clarinet, piano, and guitar. I'm thinking about picking either the piano or guitar back up again.

I play synth/keyboard. I've been writing my own songs for awhile now too. I like '80s style synthpop like Depeche Mode, OMD, and A-ha. I hope to one day have my own band, atleast to play with... it would alot more fun to be around other people with similar interests. Just wish I could meet others like me :) It's really difficult.

I play guitar...

I started playing when I was 8 years old. My mother tells me that I used to have a ukelele when I was a toddler, and I played that astonshing well. but I don't remember that.

Playing guitar is the very essence of who I am. I communicate with my music on a level that I cannot any other way.

My guitar is an extension of my body and mind.

We are one.

That's how I used to be with the piano. I started when I was very young. Then there were some things that happened that made me never want to play again. I am more into the guitar now than anything, but I don't have one of my own anymore. I'm working on that problem though :)

I was a folk-singer back when...

Acoustic guitar, harmonica, vocals. The guitar hasn't agreed with my long nails being on both hands so I (in tears) picked my nails over guitar. Plus that with me would totally come off as a dikey overkill.

I play guitar and bass - though I am a much better guitarrist than bass player. Unfortunately, where I live it is hard to find the right musicians to play with. I am a punk guitarrist who knows what they are doing and just do not have it in me to play covers note for note - which is what the vast majority of musicians around here do. I have a band, but when our last bass player quit in September, it took us until now to replace him - most of the musicians that can handle the style around here don't have the chops, the ones with the chops, don't understand the style... grrrr... but our new bass player finally fits the bill... hopefully... I'll find out at practice on Tuesday

I've played the koto (Google it) for something like four years now, and I play the ocarina a little. I've recently started playing around with synths, since I'm taking a MIDI technology class, but I'm not really jiving with the musical keyboard input yet, so that'll take some more work. Koto is really my main thing, though...I take a noncredit class every semester for it, and we do a few concerts in the area.

I don't know if I'll ever play a traditional instrument, since I have no idea how to even begin to make heads or tails of sheet music. >.> Pathetic, right?

I try to play guitar, however I FAIL.

I'm a somewhat impatient person when it comes to anything to do with myself. Which means if I'm not up to a standard I'd like myself to be at by the end of one hour of playing I say "Arhh forget it!" put the guitar down and don't pick it up for a year or so.....

      Good morning    Now @Abigail Genevieve and @Mmindy what makes you so certain I didn’t mean it to say bee itch certificate?  lol. Thanks Mindy. I was asleep when you saw this and fixed it, and yes Abigail, as a moderator I could have fixed it myself, or weren’t you pointing out the irony of that?   I use Alexis as my alarm to get up.  And I set the ringer to be two guys telling me to get up.  I was so sound asleep when they started telling me to get up that it scared me and my first thought were I had over slept.  Since I have a difficult time getting to sleep as early as I have to in order to get enough sleep I at least cut back my normal awake time to get ready.  But now I have to do my hair and get going.   enjoyed my coffee and a little time catching up   see you all later, for its hi ho hi ho it’s off to work I go.   Willow

      Republicans have long committed grave errors by emphasizing their social agenda and moral issues instead of just focusing on the economy, lowering taxes, keeping the public safe, building a strong national defense, promoting business, touting reasonable immigration policies, etc.   The country would thrive economically under Trump's tax and business policies. That's a fact. Another four years of Biden will run this country into the ground financially (including all of our 401Ks and IRAs). But the GOP continues to play right into the Dems' hands by leading with their moral crusades instead of staying the course and trusting their fiscal policies to win the day...

      Thanks.  I will look those up in the document, hopefully tomorrow.   I always look at the source on stuff like this, not what someone, particularly those adversarial, have to say.

      LGBTQ rights Project 2025 takes extreme positions against LGBTQ rights, seeking to eliminate federal protections for queer people and pursue research into conversion therapies in order to encourage gender and sexuality conformity. The policy book also lays out plans to criminalize being transgender and prohibit federal programs from supporting queer people through various policies. The project partnered with anti-LGBTQ groups the Family Policy Alliance, the Center for Family and Human Rights, and the Family Research Council. Project 2025 calls for the next secretary of Health and Human Services to “immediately put an end to the department’s foray into woke transgender activism,” which includes removing terms related to gender and sexual identity from “every federal rule, agency regulation, contract, grant, regulation, and piece of legislation that exists.” The Trump administration proposed a similar idea in 2018 that would have resulted in trans people losing protections under anti-discrimination laws. [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023; The New Republic, 2/8/24] Similarly, the policy book calls for HHS to stop all research related to gender identity unless the purpose is conformity to one's sex assigned at birth. The New Republic explains: “That is, research on gender-nonconforming children and teenagers should be funded by the government, but only for the purpose of studying what will make them conform, such as denying them gender-affirming care and instead trying to change their identities through ‘counseling,’ which is a form of conversion therapy.” [The New Republic, 2/8/24] The policy book’s foreword by Kevin Roberts describes “the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology and sexualization of children” as “pornography” that “should be outlawed,” adding, “The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned.” Roberts also says that “educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offenders. And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023] Roberts’ foreword states that “allowing parents or physicians to ‘reassign’ the sex of a minor is child abuse and must end.” Echoing ongoing right-wing attacks on trans athletes, Roberts also claims, “Bureaucrats at the Department of Justice force school districts to undermine girls’ sports and parents’ rights to satisfy transgender extremists.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023; TIME magazine, 5/16/22] Dame Magazine reports that Project 2025 plans to use the Department of Justice to crack down on states that “do not charge LGBTQ people and their allies with crimes under the pretense that they are breaking federal and state laws against exposing minors to pornography.” [Dame Magazine, 8/14/23] Project 2025 also calls for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to repeat “its 2016 decision that CMS could not issue a National Coverage Determination (NCD) regarding ‘gender reassignment surgery’ for Medicare beneficiaries.” The policy book’s HHS chapter continues: “In doing so, CMS should acknowledge the growing body of evidence that such interventions are dangerous and acknowledge that there is insufficient scientific evidence to support such coverage in state plans.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023] Going further, Project 2025 also demands that the next GOP administration “reverse policies that allow transgender individuals to serve in the military.” The policy book’s chapter on the Defense Department claims: “Gender dysphoria is incompatible with the demands of military service, and the use of public monies for transgender surgeries … for servicemembers should be ended.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023]   …summaries of what’s within the rest of the document re: LGBTQ+ concerns. A person can believe their gender is fixed but incongruent with their physiology, but the authors and Trump (by his own words) just see the incongruity of an “expressed gender” that conflicts with what was/is in a person’s pants.
