Just thought this would be a cool thread. We all love our trucks, and Im sure all of us love some sort of music. Yall play any instruments?

I was in a band with a buddy from another forum (some of you know chris from FFS, goes by C denny run*). I play drums mainly, but since the kid was born Ive been learning guitar too since its easier to play while she sleeping and napping ha ha. We played mainly rock, some metal, and a little soft rock.

heres my guitar.

and heres a couple of me behind the drums with my bandmates. we are all still good friends, just the schedules of life kept us from being able to coordinate practice times.

Ha ha! we are far from talented.. we had a demo cd recorded, and played a couple of shows that we hosted, but we are far from rockstar status.

Heres another vid I took on my iPhone, this is suppose to be an acoustic song played on a nylon string guitar, but we practiced mainly on the electric. I dont have any parts in this song ha ha. Keep in mind we just did this for fun, we arent super good but we had fun, had some beers and a shat load of laughs and thats all that matters!

I haven't seen many around here, but my cousin bought one from a music store when he was taking banjo lessons, i saw it, and he could play alittle on it, so i had him pick me up one. Then i played it quite a bit, once i got decent at playing it i started breaking them. I have around 6-7 that are no longer playable. I need to get a quality one instead of these cheap junk.

I want one like this guy is playing.

Probably not the same kind of musician you guys were talking about, but I did 4 years in the Marine Corps stationed in New Orleans with the Marine Band down there

I have now moved on to greater things and haven't touched an instrument in about 9 months

hey man what's up with the red jackets? sorry AF don't know anything about the corps band and can't really call up my dad and ask him

The red jackets are the President's Own Marine Band from Washington DC, they are a very unique unit in the Marine Corps as they are the only ones that do not go through boot camp and come into the Marine Corps with the specific job of being the band attached to the President of the United States and not a deployable unit. They are an incredible band as most of them came from prestigous music schools from around the world. They travel the country throughout the year and occasionally join up with a fleet band like the one I was in and play a concert with us.
