Guitar Hero

[Manky Monkey]

I was delivering the Mail yesterday & as I walked up to one house I could hear someone playing some very nice Bluegrass guitar. I knocked on the door & the music stopped.
That sounded great I said to the guy who answered.
His face lit up -Really? My wife hates it.
Pfft, what does she know.
Yeah! Thank you.
I walked on up the road & as I came back down the other side, he was stood at the front window, in full Rock God pose, belting out AC/DC at full volume, with loads of feedback -duh, duh, duh, duhduh!
He grinned at me & I punched the air in salute -Dude!
As I walked away around the corner I thought Y-e-a-h, your wife's not at home is she.

Always wished I'd learnt to play an instrument. Always fancied the Banjo. Play a mean air guitar in the welding bay

Mr Loon & I were discussing that this afternoon at his workshop. His Dad plays drums in a band & has a banjo, but neither of them can play it. Very difficult instrument to master I'm told.

"Deliverance" has a lot to answer for....

  Not sure what my trike has to do with their inability to play the Banjo.  
I have a 'few' guitars and can't play, but they are good for dexterity exercise and annoying the missus.
Really fancy a six string banjo.

I had a guitar once - I was useless at learning to play it.

"Deliverance" has a lot to answer for..., yep, if some yokel like him can play a banjo, there is hope for us all

i,m down to three instruments now a yamaha 6 string electro acoustic a fender copy bass and a jack daniels ukulele,havent sussed the uke yet its tuned totally different than a guitar,and don,t play the others very often,but still think about the good times i had in bands from the late 60,s till the early eighties,good times !

When I saw the title I thought it was going to be about the console 'game'.

I have a PS2 which I bought as a good way to play Blu Ray films. Knowing I had this my daughter gave me the guitar and drums plus the mikes for Guitar Hero. Well during the school half term I had my Son and my three Grandchildren to stay and boy did we have fun.

So unlike Andy's soloist, if you can't cut it I would thoroughly recommend the console version instead. The only downside is that yes, muggins here, has to now store all the equipment.
