My lately neglected guitar is keeping its abused stares at me and I want to pick up playing again. I’ve rediscovered my love for blues lately so I want to focus on that a bit more.
You guys play any instruments?

I can scream and sing pretty well. I have a dusty guitar I’ve neglected for too long but my joint disorder makes it difficult to play. Wanted to learn the piano a long time ago but the opportunity hasn’t presented itself. When I was 14 I spent all my money ordering a viola from Amazon and got told by a guitar store employee that I had wasted my money on a glorified doorstop. We really don’t appreciate art here, do we? Many children have a deep seated desire to create music but wind up not being able to due to finances and lack of adequate support systems. It sucks so hard.
Wait like he thought violas were useless or it was so poorly costructed that it was unplayable? I’d be offended by the former!
Unfortunately music isn’t profitable really except for overproduced pop music intended solely for spewing out of the content hose, so arts education is in the shitter
It was a cheap $60 viola from Amazon, so just that that specific piece was functionally garbage haha. It was definitely still crushing to hear.
Absolutely, just another example of the profit motive dictating what is or isn’t worth investing energy and capital into. Such a shame, as music is one of the most brilliant forms of human expression that exists.
