I hope we do well too the last time I got involed in a battle of the bands competition we finished 3rd so hoping this time to finish 1st or 2nd in music and in life I never want to just settle

Just wanted to give you an update from last night I called in a favor today from a friend who owns a recording studio and we are gonna do a demo cd featuring the little one I mentioned last night all of us got together to talk about it tonight and you know what her condition was all she wants is to play my Fender Strat guitar for the demo it took me up until 2 years ago to be able to justify buying it and all I could say tonight is you can have what ever you want LOL I guess I will have to blow the dust of of my Ibanez guitar to get this demo done but I think this is gonna be great and it leads right into our battle of the bands thing so we will get [lenty of practice I wish I could post some songs on this website because some of them really are good. Music has always been my passion all through life and I feel so proud to be able to pass that on to other people.

You have me cracking up with that comment about babes going for musicians I am here to tell you that is not necisarrily true the last few years it has been wifes with husbands and kids asking if I am willing to give lessons LOL

silly you know it is funny because I never took guitar lessons I pretty much taught my self how to play and have never been able to learn how to read sheet music play everything by ear and when I started giving her guitar lessons I told my friend I have a lot of bad habits on guitar and he told me that he didn't care and tonight it was all worth while because bad habits or not she is a great guitarist and it seems like she is gonna stick with it

yeah it was a lot of fun I think it is gonna be a weekly thing now for me at least anyway

After being bummed out last night all about this dating thing I decided to go out and have some fun tonight. As you guys can tell from my profile picture. Other than working I am a musician I play guitar and bass. The drummer for the band I used to play in has a daughter who is now 14 I started giving her guitar lessons at the age of 7 (friend was upset he wanted her to be a drummer). Anyway we have a place here where I live that local musicians get together and play once a week. You don't have to have a band just bring your instruments and get together with whoever and play. It is open to all ages. So we all met down there tonight I took my Bass and my Guitar my buddy brought his drums and for the first time the little one brought her guitar. I had another guy there play bass and the little one and I were switching off between lead and rythem guitar and I just pretty much forgot about everything in life except that moment. My Idol in music has alway's and alway's will be STEVIE RAY VAUGHN and tonight she played lead on superstition and played it flawlessley. I was so amazed at how good she has gotten over the years of lessons. And one of the things that I will alway's cherish is that my friend told me tonight you taught her how to play like that. We are gonna be playing in a battle of the bands competition next month and she is gonna be part of it which is something I think is Just GREAT. Anyway this is probably not the place to post this but I am new to the forums. It is just with all that has been going on lately I wanted to post a good experience that I was able to be a part of.

that cracks me up the chicken wimp thing because in all reality that is a catch 22 because if you are sympathetic and listen you are too NICE in my experience is a TURN OFF on the other hand if you speak your mind and there is a dis agreement you are an ABUSIVE A**H**E Definetely a turnoff

ok I will work keeps my mind going a million miles an hour and I think that this will help me to let it unwind

Yellowrose10 I do that at times but I gotta be honest it gets a little old doing things by yourself all the time I know I will meet that special someone someday it just seems sometimes that time is running out

I think lately I really miss someone to share things with I moved here for my job of a lifetime and have no family close at all I have been single for about 6 years now I just graduated from college 2 years ago and did not get into a relationship while I was going to school because I did not think it would be fair to her because of the time I had to dedicate to a full time job and school it is not an easy thing doing both at 34 years old and not graduating till you are 38

I just want to meet someone who is sincere I know that most of us including me have been through some bad relationships I am one though that has been able to put them behind me and let go and the only time I will talk about them is if I am asked.

Actually I could if you could upload music to this site I have been playing guitar since I was 8 and have a couple of really good cd's these last 2 situations have given me a lot of thoughts for a couple of new songs but would have to have a parental discretion sticker on them

My Name is Rick and I need some help I have been trying to do this online thing in the hopes of meeting that someone special and have had some issues I have not met anyone on this site yet but I have met a couple locally on craigslist we went through all the preliminaries of chatting online and talking on the phone ect. It seemed with both things were going very well. I took the first one out to lunch and we hit it off but she had a lot going on in her life and I was not interested in that. took the second one out to lunch and was told later that night that there was no connection I can also understand that. but the thing I can't understand is both women talked the whole time about how bad they were treated by their ex's and I pretty much just sat back and listened to it all. I can't figure out for the life of me why these are the types I keep attracting. I am not mad about this just frustrated and can't figure out why. I have a great job and a college degree and just want to meet someone who is sincere to fill the gap that I think is missing in my life. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me
