I used to think this. Don't play games. Music is mobile, play something that is too. Trumpet, Guitar, Violin, Harmonica, Saxophone, Drums, whatever. Piano was great and I took lessons for about 6 years when it was all said and done, but I could never show up places and play. I couldn't plug in my keyboard on someones front porch and have fun. It was cool, and I understand the theory books fine, but music was never really about theory books.


Get something mobile. Best advice I could give. Just because 8 guys play guitar on your street, doesn't mean that you're useless.
