I m'self play piano/keyboard okayly, and write tunes now and then.
BTW there's a reason for this; it's to do with a new project I've got in which I could input from as many musicians as I can find.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

Started playing drums in 8th grade so its been... 6 years. Guitar started in about 9th, so 5 years.
Became a 'percussionist' (as in, less drumset, more percussion) starting at about 11th grade. Now do a lot of recording. Working on a CD, somewhat akin to Godsmack's 'The Other Side' -- shit that would sound awesome loud and distorted but played with acoustic guitars and a lot lot lot of percussion.
Itll be sexy.
