Hey, thanks for all the replies everyone! Glad to hear the experiences of everyone else. Seems like it'll be a long road, but I'm having fun messing about. I feel like I'd make some quicker progress if I had some more people to play with, but as of now I'm my own band. I've added keys to the mix of things I'm teaching myself, which hopefully won't slow any one thing down too much. I feel like those three things will get me covered though.

It's ceetainly important to try multiple instruments. I'm a pianist by trade (classically-trained), but I've also dabbled in guitar (didn't interest me, not sure why) and saxophone. The nice thing about a piano is that it can play just about anything any (non-percussion) instrument can. Not as well, or with the same attitude, but it's a useful tool for arranging basslines, riffs, chords, etc.
And I haven't written anything serious yet, but give me a song's chord progression, and I can arrange it for a band. |
^if you're playing a prepared piano, you can also make several percussive noises.

the first thing i did when i started to play guitar was to try to write a song. I have wrirtten 120_140, who can tell, so far, and none of them is actually good, so i guess it is about talent. Which i have not. But still, only trying to create something by yourself is more satisfying than if you do not even try.

But i agree with you i think is best to try and fail than to never try at all |

I'm totally down with turning songs into poetry but I think that both mediums should be separate. When it comes to me, at least. If you've got some lines that sound like sing song tunes then go for it, but I think that the two are very separate. Like sculpting with ice and and doing woodwork. |
