Anyone play an instrument, play in a band? What style? I play rhythm guitar like Malcolm young. All my bands have been '2 guitar' bands. (I'm not great at playing solos). I've been playing for 18 years and my first gigging band was around 1990. We played 80's Heavy Metal like Judas Priest, AC/DC, Sabbath, Dangerous Toys, Dio, etc. That lasted 2 years. For a year after that I played in a garage 'party' band for friends and we played college parties. Mostly 80's metal. In 1994 I was in a classic rock band playing all sorts of 60's, 70's, and 80's rock. We gigged for 3 years and recorded an original studio CD before dis-banding in 1996 because of 'drummer' and 'bassist' personal issues that couldn't be resolved. I've not played in a band since. I record cover songs at home in my spare time.

I too am a musician. I've been playing for 10 years. I play rhythm/lead. I have been in a couple of bands but nothing really serious or anything. I play classic rock (AC/DC, KISS, Led Zepp, Sabbath, Lynyrd Skynyrd, ect.). I'm not the greatest songwriter but from time-to-time I do my own material.

You and I have great taste in music. ;D I too am a terrible songwriter so I have always been a 'cover' musician. Thats what I do really well and its fun. Kiss was another one of those old bands I grew up with and was influenced by as a teen. I don't care much for solo guitarists such as Vai, Satriani and the like because they're too overly technical in their playing and to me, they just don't 'Rock'. Ya know? I like rock BANDS that Rock out! and Bang my 39 yr old head.. LOL OLDSCHOOL ALL THE WAY!!
