I can appreciate the good ones when I see them
by sheer coincidence the first girl I properly kissed and the first one who I shagged were both gingers.

thanks
did I tell you I played drums the other day?

I'm going to get some lessons off my mate once he's got his kit set up in his new house.

It was either drums or piano, and I think basic drums should be easier.

nice touch, do you have a kit?

( SteveFrench Cardio is for homo's. do you even lift bro?, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 14:31, Reply)

no, but my mate has an electronic one
and we have a kit for the band. Most of my guitar gear is stored at the same place as the drums, so I will be able to practice reasonably regularly.

The main thing I need to get over is being able to keep my legs doing stuff when my arms are doing stuff.

It took me a week to get independence on my arms then about a month to be comfortable
with one leg. After 6 months all four of my limbs could work independently and then you stop thinking about it. You can keep practising whilst at work so do that too.

that's encouraging
my mate is also a really quite good guitarist, so will be nice for us to swap within the band so he can play guitar some.

He advised me to practice stomping and beating the drum beat to Alright Now to help me.

thanks

I'm quite excited about it. My experience on Thursday was by far the most capable I have been on drums.

If you're just sitting at a desk
Try tapping your left foot regularly in 4/4 and drumming along on the desk in different rhythms while keeping the foot going.

Piano is much easier
or I'd be able to play the drums, too.

I'm not so sure
I think being pretty decent on the guitar will hinder me learning the piano

particularly as I don't want to have to relearn how to read music.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 14:33, Reply)

Learning the piano will make you a *MUCH* better guitarist though...
It's so much easier to visualise modes/scales etc when you can relate it to a piano keyboard.

I'm going to start giving free, online drum lessons soon with a view to building my confidence up enough to teach properly again.

I don't think it will make me much better until I got rather good on the piano
unfortunately.

I've been playing for a good long while and my brain is set up to work scales based on a guitar neck and strings.

The problem I will have is trying to learn a different way of looking at things
