Re: Do instruments really define the people who play them? (32 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Jikklop wrote:Hey,
It's true, people's personality aren't ALWAYS cultivated by what instrument they play. Seems that way though, huh?
Being a saxophonist in a band, I tend to notice these things:
Trumpets - Loud, whiney drama queens.
Drummers - Most of the time, ignorant.
Flutes/Clarinets - Quiet. Very quiet.
Saxophones - Try to be noticed, but are mostly ignored. Very cynical and some would do better as comedians.
Basses/Trombones - Again, quieter than they should be and ignored.
Violins - Loud, happy people, but still have that "strings player" feeling around them.
Cellos - Concentrate a lot.
Pianos - Perfectionists. Some (emphasis on "some") aren't very likeable.
Sorry if I offended anyone, I am a bit cynical and hard-headed.Jikklop
When these threads come up I always have to wonder where I fit in, playing the guitar, the piano, drums, saxophone, bass, and blues harp.
Yeah, as a guitarist I agree with JSGinCYQX
But as a drummer I am insulted

Re: Do instruments really define the people who play them? (32 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I believe its more the type of music one plays that defines the person than the instrument he or she chooses
I completely agree

Re: Do instruments really define the people who play them? (32 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
But what about people who play more than one insturument, they must have pretty mixed up personalities...
I think the music they listen too also defines a person, or at least the mood they're in when they're listening to it.

Topic: Desperately in need of a band name, can anyone help?!?! (10 replies, posted in My local band and me)
We were originally called 'Psychedelic Roses' but it was a bit too cliched for my liking, (Stone Roses, Guns And Roses, you get the picture?)
I wanted to rename us 'The Infinite' but our lead guitarist is being seriously awkward about it.
Can anyone help?
