My hat goes off to you J man ! I wish I had the discipline to learn the electric and acoustic guitar! I know chords but that's as far as it goes ! Have you ever tried slide guitar J ? I think it has to do with dampening the strings ?...it's difficult!

She took my hands and banged them up and down on the keyboard and proceeded to scare the living shit out of me. End of piano lessons. Anyway I wanted to play football and could not really be bothered with all this plinky plonk nonsense. A decision I regret to this day. I can dabble on a piano but that's about it. I had to wait until my late teens to discover the absolute joy of the electric guitar. Then I was HOOKED! The neighbours were not amused........
The ultimate connection is between a performer and its' audience!
