I play the violin and piano, I'm planning on learning to play the guitar too.

I've been playing the piano since I was seven, and I started on the violin at nine. Even though I learned to play the piano first, I like the violin better. Now, I'm thinking of trying a guitar. I like classical music, so I don't think I'd be getting a lead guitar with all the distortion and stuff. And if I decide to try it out, I have a lot of friends and family who can teach me, yeah we're kinda a musical family.

How about you guys, do you play any musical instruments?

I play the guitar.

I have a Fender Mexi Strat that I have nicked named the General Lee because it is hugger orange. I added a white pearloid pick guard and it has black hardware. I want to convert it from HH to SSS.

I also have a mid 80s Epiphone Sheraton, a Gretsch Les Paul copy and my wife has a seafoam green Fender Jag-Stang.

Classical Piano since I was wee little but no so much anymore; I have a Yamaha Clavinova in my family room. Tried the violin but fingers were a bit large. When I was playing in local rock bands many years ago I played a Fender Precision and Fender Rhodes. My buddy, a former band member, still has them and I thought about trying to get the p-bass back. Also gotta acoustic and electric guitar around here some where that the kids play with.

I took piano lessons early in elementary school but I don't know if I made it a whole year before dropping that for the electric bass. It's definately something I'd like to pick up again sometime, though. I played the viola for Strings class in 4th or 5th grade, which was fun but not something I stuck with.

I just dusted off my electric bass and accoustic guitar today and played (or at least tried to) for a couple of hours. I'm going to try to get in the habbit of playing more often so I don't have to relive the pain from today of picking them up just to realize how much I've forgotten. First things first... I have to get new strings asap.

I took piano lessons in elementary school and switched to guitar in 6th grade. Took classical guitar lessons in high school and college and also played guitar in rock bands during those years. I played trumpet throught junior high and high school and also picked up French horn in high school. Played trumpet in the Marching Owl Band (MOB) at Rice U for 3 years. I'm also a big fan of making music with found objects (yes, I'm a geek!).

Turned out I played too long that day after losing my calluses and ended up with a blister.

I finally got new strings this afternoon. Ernie Ball Super Slinkys for my bass and Elixir Light Nanowebs for my accoustic. I haven't strung the Elixirs up yet but am loving the much needed new strings on my bass. I couldn't tell you the last time I changed my strings and oh what a difference it makes!

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By GolfLug · Posted

      I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By iacas · Posted

      Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By iacas · Posted

      No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.

      Too Old?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By saevel25 · Posted

      So, Brendan Sorsby, Texas Tech transfer QB, was found guilty of sports betting by the NCAA. He admitted to it. He placed thousands of bets over multiple years while at Indiana and Cincinnati. This included betting on his own teams.  The NCAA rules ban athletes from betting on any sport (college or pro).  A retired visiting judge from Tarrant County, Texas has put an injunction on the NCAA ruling. He is a visiting judge because the first judge was a graduate and big fan of Texas Tech, and he recused himself. The judged ruled the following... "Under Curry's order, Sorsby is permitted to play for Texas Tech's 2026 season on the condition that he continues his treatment for a gambling and anxiety disorder and serves a two-game suspension (missing games against Abilene Christian and Oregon State)."  Don't get me wrong, I don't particularly care for the NCAA. That still doesn't mean that a college can choose when or where to say, "Yea we agree to these rules for all our sports, well except in this case." Here is a breakdown from S&W. The Hidden Weapon in Sorsby’s Injunction: How a Lubbock County Court Order Quietly Neutralized the NCAA’s Most Powerful Enforcement Tool - Law Offices of Snell & Wilmer By Ryan J. Regula On June 8, 2026, Lubbock County District Court Judge Ken Curry issued a temporary injunction in Brendan Sorsby v. National Collegiate Athletic Association, Cause No. DC-2026-CV-0791 (99th Judicial District... The main judgement made sense. Sorsby, I am going to have all this harm done to me if I don't get to play. The Judge, I agree. The penalty for gambling is too harsh, so here are all these things you must do, and I will grant this injunction against the NCAA. Basically, an analogy would be when a person goes into court for a DUI and they agree to all these other things to not end up in jail.  What sucks for the NCAA is the NCAA has appealed to Texas’ Seventh Court of Appeals, based in Amarillo. All four justices that preside over the court are graduates of Texas Tech University School of Law. It would be hilarious if all four of them had to recuse themselves 🤣. For those who like to read legal rulings...
