That........was GREAT!!!! Some SERIOUS pickin’ ‘n’ grinnin’ going on there.
I’ve longed believed that music, more than ANYthing else, can and does bring people of all stripes, all colors, all creeds together across vast cultural divides. It truly is the universal language.
Great post. Loved it.
I wish I could pick at a banjo like my dad did.. could never figure out the 5 string though :p
Can play semi-decent on a 6 string.. well, I play several instruments.. but I could never play what they did back then (depression). Then again, I could never get close to Bach nor Beethoven either :D
I DO make music when I have free time now, but it is all ‘electronic’.. I would record with me playing trumpet IF I had a full group together now, but that would never happen :p
Anyway, try to keep positive, as well as those around you :)
