Can't play a real guitar

I had to learn the trombone at school I swapped it for guitar at 13 then realised I couldn't do that
so tried the drums and was at home. I really wish I could learn the violin though, I love strings.

I'm not sure how to phonetically write a trombone noise in a sarcastic manner so I shall let you have this round.

I think it's called a descending chromatic wah.
Or that might be one of the many names used by Pete Wylie's old band.

I wanted to play the cello.
But I never really got to the second instrument stage. Plus I'm not a big fan of stringed bowed instruments.

I would like to play the bassoon. Or the Eigenharp.

I'm pretty pissed
that I spent £25 on my Grade VIII book and will fail to get it this exam season. Will have to spend another £25 and then however much the exam is (around £100) when I finally want to take it.

I will complete D.eme Arabesque at some point though.

I don't know how much faith I have in grades
I may be 7/8 but I'm not performance standard, and I cannot play much. I also cannot sightread to save my life (though I passed grade 7 sightreading. Having failed all but 1 before...)

I gave that up after Grade 4 and learnt to play the saxophone instead.

While most of my stories are from when I was stoned
and I've had some beautiful experiences on mushrooms, noone wants to hear them, so I'm not going to tell them.

I can't work out how to get my best drug related anecdote into a story
As it's basically "I took drugs and went on public transport"
(

Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Fri 17 Sep 2010, 13:54, Reply)

mine is "I took drugs and sat in a tent, then I left and had hot chocolate"
or possibly "I took drugs, got paranoid then fell on my face"
(

Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Fri 17 Sep 2010, 13:55, Reply)

"I took drugs and thought I had no skeleton"
"I took drugs, had a very bad reaction, cried for 2 hours, and had a week-long comedown and fun with a kitchen knife"

Well it's either that or I'm fuck-ugly

at least your eyes are open the same amount in most photos
I look like a one-eyed drunk most of the time.

I do see what you mean
perhaps you smile more with one side of your mouth than the other?

Compare some of my monstrosities though, and you'll see why I'm hoping desperately that I'm just unphotogenic, rather than actually looking like that

I think it must be that my camera smile is lopsided

Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Fri 17 Sep 2010, 14:45, Reply)

some people do just smile
with one side of their face. Especially for cameras, so it looks less like they're grinning
