Just out of interest, what percentage of sisters fans (lets use you lot as a sample) are:

A) in a band (or make music, you know what I mean)
B) instrumentalists (or singers)
C) Very much neither of the above (however much you wish it were otherwise)

???

C. I'm the type of guy you'd only see onstage with a torch/towels/bottles of water, etc - Roadie material :roll:

But with my current haircut you'd be more likely to see me at the front door wearing a black parka/puffa jacket looking moody. :?

i've never been able to stay in a band for very long :(

one day i'll find some people who share my vision of a glam-goth-cyber-metal-pop-punk band who sing about samoyeds and eddie stobart.

and wear primark jeans.

and drink tom paulins (you're not cool unless you know how to make a tom paulin)

so b.
guitar, bass, keys and shouting in german or latin.

a and b- i have thousands of instrumental songs on my computer but being the perfectionist that i am, never actually made any kind of effort to complete an album

i do however, have one band. neatly entitled Amputed, its a combination of simple guitar riffs and random out of time drums. Not serious as such but very fun to make at random

C. With brackets. Always convinced myself I could sing, provided I finally found the octave that suited me. Now, I'm just hoping to find the one note (just one, please!) that I can actually hold.

Mind you, that never stopped AE, Lou Reed, Bob Dylan, Iggy Pop, Ian Curtis, Ian Brown...That's what I need to tell myself. That's it...

A and B. I'm a singer, keyboardplayer, drummer, trumpet player, bassist and percussionist.
And I still have a rather normal life.

And some gratuitous self-commerce: check out http://server.dd4e.net/avatar to hear me sing and play the keyboards...

A and B, still go with the John Lennon quote, " I'm not sure what I'm doing, but I can make it howl"... :notworthy:

None.
I'm only a listener.
I love music, couldn't live without music, but never felt the need to make music myself.

I am the greatest singer/songwriter who ever lived.

can't play an instrument to save my life, though.
