I agree with this, but with an addendum. I'd hold off on buying a guitar until you have a couple weeks/months on your brother's electric and have the basics down. If you don't like it or find yourself not being able to stick with it, at least this way you didn't shell out a couple hundred bucks for an instrument that'll just sit collecting dust. You're not going to be doing any shows for a while, so quality isn't the biggest issue right now.
That's basically what I wanted to do.. Buy some cheap *** ***, just to see if I can... I remember playing the Violin and Jesus, even then my fingers would cramp up and I just couldn't handle it, I'm kinda dubious if I could now.. I mean I could go out and buy some 200 dollar guitar+amp set, and then find out I can't, but the thing is so cheap that no one would buy it back it or anything, it'd have little to no resale value..
So it keeps getting prioritized over.
; ; why are hobbies so expensive. The only real hobby I have that I'm good at and enjoy is building models (cars) I know I can play instruments and all, but only from my experience of 10+ years ago.. I can still build models but they're so expensive.. At least to do them right.
could buy an instrument and then teach ur kid how to play or make them learn how to play

Other than doing his school work and not being a brat, I actually don't want to make my son do anything.. Hell, he even goes to church and reads the bible and stuff (relevant because I am not religious and am Anti-christian for the most part) I'm not going to stand in his way.. His life choices, as far as I'm concerned, will always be his within reason.
And if he wants to learn to play instruments, he has a full drum set out in the garage.. If he wants to learn something else, then that's within the realm of possibility as well. He wanted to learn Spanish, so got him some things to start him on that path. He's pretty much free to to explore his own interests and we will support it. But I don't want to force anything on him.. I just expect him to do well in school and behave.
If he fails either of those.. I become Red Forman.

<was in band for 7 years of school and one year as a music major
Wow.. Have you seen the interview the captain to the Concordia gave while rescue operations were still going on from his motel room <_<
You know I always assume the media is playing it up, but he really is an ***.. I mean I kinda already knew that much because of his "I slipped into the life boat" thing.. But damn.
It's the first 11 seconds that get me.. Well based on the words alone.. I don't think I could possibly smell more *** than if I stuck my head up in the *** of a politician and snaked it through his digestion track and out of his mouth while he had his head firmly implanted insides a bull's ***..
The body language is also very telling.. I'm not an expert, but you don't need to be to read that..
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
