Jazzy stuff mostly. One day I'd like to make some rock music, but I've struggled to find a concept that really fits me.

I play in our church's worship band every Sunday.

I also played in a hardcore punk band for about a year, but bowed out when my daughter was born due to lack of time, but can't wait to get back into a band again.

So true. And it becomes a chore and a job rather than a passion.

Dude the best music is the stuff you don't make just to sell. There are sure to be some people who will appreciate that and buy your stuff. I listened to a couple of your songs and they're really good

i was in a band in highschool never made it past the garage stage due to various reasons

I was in a band for maybe...6 months? seems longer than that though it may have been less. We did covers of various artists in multiple genres. We ended up only writing...2 songs I guess, but we performed in quite a few different places, all local. Our instrumentalists were nothing super special, although we definitely had some talent...but we had two lead singers (me and my buddy

) which isn't very common. Not to toot my own horn, but id say we had some hot harmonies. It would be impossible to keep me off the stage, and i prefer duet type stuff to solos, so i want to get into another band asap!

I was in a band for two weeks haha, and that didn't go too well. I've been really ****ing around lately music wise, I'm a bit limited as to what I can achieve, due to less then stellar equipment. There's also the problem with focusing, I have trouble keeping with one thing for more then five minutes. I might not be cut out to be a musician... but I still love playing and listening to music.
