The Real Reason You Became a Musician

FraDonaghy	Date: November 14, 2008 @ 10:37 AM Oh how I wish this were true. I have yet to meet a single girl impressed in the slightest way by me being a musician.
Tattoomom	Date: November 14, 2008 @ 11:12 AM You have to ask Bill about the girl who sat on his lap at the airport gig.....

Too bad you weren't in the groups round Gloucester during the early to mid 90s... I'm not saying my old town's full of slappers but you'd have been on your back quite often.
FraDonaghy	Date: November 14, 2008 @ 11:23 AM ...back then I wasn't even legal. It's always something!

ChillinBuzz	Date: November 14, 2008 @ 11:24 AM Rats, well I'm sure nobody would've grassed you up for having a go anyway.

LiQuidMetamo...	Date: November 14, 2008 @ 4:15 PM err ... I did it because I enjoy it and I have to say that apart from when I played bass temporarily for a grunge band in Uni where I suddenly got invited to a couple of 'beautiful people' parties, my experience parallels that of Fra, although my wife enjoys and supports my musical endeavours, I don't think that is why she chose me, (maybe it's because I have an appendage like the last picture maybe ... )
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: November 14, 2008 @ 4:16 PM vilifiends picture disappeared in case you got confused, so forget the last part. VF, you dirty little birdie
vilifiend	Date: November 14, 2008 @ 4:20 PM lul very controversial stuff, bodies and such. continue on with sharing our abstract concept of mental selves... physical selves may not be expressed. thats just wrong and dirty. im so STUPID. GAWD. haha, god. lul, god. god god god god god. what a trip.
vilifiend	Date: November 14, 2008 @ 4:25 PM and to actually be on topic... my low self esteem says girls dont give a damn. but i can name more girlfriends ive had who were turned on by it than not. i guess thats the way it goes, perception of history is usually kind of sad and twisted by self worth. but i never got into it for chicks. if i did, id probably write much different tuneage... my music isnt exactly chick magnet music.
vilifiend	Date: November 14, 2008 @ 4:31 PM though i can serenade with an acoustic....... . . . . .. hmmmmmmmmmm i think youre onto something tattoomom uncovering my shadow self perhaps deep down im just a dirty skank.

ChillinBuzz	Date: November 14, 2008 @ 8:16 PM Damn this language barrier. It's our slang for "reporting you" to whatever authority is relevent, the cops, council, the class teacher, etc. Not sure how he would smell if we literally grassed him up though.
GeneHilbert	Date: November 15, 2008 @ 12:18 AM I have always known I was a musician. From my earliest memories it was and is what I do...... The gift and drive were there but it took a tremendous amount of work and sacrifice to develop the skills. It still takes work and dedication to maintain and progress. There is no "you've arrived", there is always the next bridge to cross, that way forward, that next hurtle to jump……. And what a long strange trip it’s been…..

evansorchid	Date: November 15, 2008 @ 8:20 AM Well I can't say that sex was the real reason I became a musician, because I was only 7 when I developed an interest in music.....and sex was the furthest thing from my mind back then. But, it did play a role in the devirginizing process. I was surprised the things that could be done on top of a Peavey Deuce amp.
zedsalt	Date: November 15, 2008 @ 10:26 AM I got into music for the abject poverty and obscurity. So far, so good.
zedsalt	Date: November 15, 2008 @ 10:33 AM Then again, there's this:
CowgirlBebop	Date: November 16, 2008 @ 1:18 AM I'm doing it because it's important and relevant and because I think I would die if I had to do anything else.
Distilled1	Date: November 16, 2008 @ 1:30 AM I got into music because my maternal side is all arts.. from caning chairs acting, and pottery, drawing, painting and Hamm radio.. to violin, piano, and singing (as well as the odd Uncle that played trombone ) and it was a natural progression, I am an artist, both musical and other media as in paint sketch, acting and you name it. what made me want the guitar? well as a young teenage bow it was sex...but as I have learned (yes my wife and many many girlfriends were.. loved me on stage and being the Rock star, but that soon wears away , I would love to be doing music 100% for a living even for super starving artist living on ramen like I did for so many years, but things change kids come into your life and they come first.. I do music today as it is my release and my life.. my lost love, my passion good or bad I do it because it allows me to share my feelings with any one willing to listen music is a glimpse into our souls and we do it no matter what we may think for that reason to SHARE! it may start for fame and fortune but a true musician like any artist does it to release our feelings yep,,, yep!
Distilled1	Date: November 16, 2008 @ 1:31 AM not teenage bow.. thats boy! damn preview!!!
Snoogans775	Date: November 16, 2008 @ 4:30 AM girls like guys that play electric guitars. that's all there is to it. I bet there's a girl on this site right now that imagines every guitar solo to be played by some stunningly handsome, rough and tuff dude with mondo abs and a 30 foot schlong. then again, they wouldn't be mistaken. I had my schlong shortened once I changed to acoustic.
zedsalt	Date: November 16, 2008 @ 10:07 AM The first time I saw that ad, though, I thought it portrayed an essential truth: a nerd learns how to play guitar, and magically transforms into what? That's right- a nerd who can play guitar! And that is, no question, an improvement.
zedsalt	Date: November 16, 2008 @ 10:08 AM ...just ask anyone who has known me more than 34 years.
INMEM	Date: November 16, 2008 @ 3:43 PM I love music and expressing myself musically is very enjoyable. I'm in it to have all the fun I can.

victorsskull	Date: March 1, 2009 @ 7:05 PM elvis presley beleave it or not
zedsalt	Date: March 2, 2009 @ 9:32 AM What's so tough to believe about that? That only describes you and about several million others.
victorsskull	Date: March 2, 2009 @ 9:34 AM what I mean is the music I play sounds nothing like him
zedsalt	Date: March 2, 2009 @ 10:27 AM That's what I like to hear! It drives me BONKERS when musicians think they're "paying tribute" to their innovative, unique heroes by making music that is intentionally neither innovative nor unique.
Snoogans775	Date: March 8, 2009 @ 4:42 AM "don't bite" that's all there is to it.
hantu	Date: March 9, 2009 @ 7:05 AM Boredom + Some kind of DAW software that came bundled with one of them bootleg discs I used to buy. Those discs were great, they came packed with many types of viruses, a new one each week infact. Good times! A few years later I looked into it a bit more, then a couple more years later I stumbled across FLStudio and really got into it. About a year later I signed up to this shit hole Now, severeal years later I give up on it all, it's all a load o' shit - no it's not, i'm just not a musician but it was fun.
