I practice fencing, I’m a fencer. Now I’m not the best fencer around but I’m at competitive tournaments several times a year.
Biggest tournament I participate in is the Arnold Classic. It’s a huge sports festival hosted by Arnold Swarzenegger, while it’s primarily a weightlifting and bodybuilding event they have just about every sport you can imagine and some you probably haven’t. Arnold is there too, I’ve seen him almost every year. Hell of an event, I like seeing the other sports almost as much as I enjoy fencing in it.
And I’ve been trying to learn to play the bagpipes lately.
It’s actually not as complicated as you might imagine. Now, I’ve never played a musical instrument before but this actually seems like something I could do with lots of practice. I just think it’s neat, I’d like to be able to play something with some degree of proficiency. Like, other instruments are more complicated - there are only 9 holes, it plays in one octave, and there’s no special blowing technique to it. Compare that to a trumpet, a flute, a saxophone. Bagpipes, quite simple in comparison.
It’s a work in progress, I can play a few little tunes.
