For all those loyal readers out there that just love the Live Music Blog, I'm super-curious...

ANY MUSICIANS IN THE HOUSE? What do you play? Why? Are you in a band? Do you suck?

ANY MUSICIANS IN THE HOUSE? Not me.

What do you play? Ummm...Nothing.

Why? I ask myself this a lot...maybe lack of ambition?

Are you in a band? No, are you even reading my answers?

Do you suck? Hmmm. At not playing anything? Actually, I'm very good at this.

I sing in a band called The Pax Romana. We've been called a modern Doors, with sounds similar to At The Drive-In and Deep Purple.

We're playing the Florida Music Festival in Orlando on May 20...totally psyched.

By the way, this site is one of most frequented...and if I dont hear any Lollapalooza additions soon I'm gonna go nuts.

Perry Farrell better add Pearl Jam or Morrissey...I'd be happy about that.

I play several instruments, but suck at all of them. I mean, really suck. Bad. But if you ask my mom she'll tell you that I've mastered the art of playing remedial-level Christmas carols on the piano.

I also love to sing, and believe me when I say that the singing sucks more than the instrumentation...but I sure do have fun!

Aw come on... there's got to be some more musicians than this?

I play guitar, been doing it for 7 years now. I f***n luv it. It is my passion. I still have room to improve but I'm getting better everyday, and damn it's addicting. Almost have "stash" down. down down. I'm currently jamming and writing with a few guys. A drummer and a sick bassist. Justin do you play? BTW keep up the good work with the site. I've been checking it regularly for a about a year now.

I play guitar, and i've been playing for about 2 years. I also sing. That's why im in this whole thing so i can play something to sing along to . I mostly play covers. I've had two real gigs so far (at the coffee shop i work at)but i would love to be in a band! Rock n' roll has always been my favorite thing in the whole world! And I love finally being apart of the action! One day I want to start a cover band called Marianne's Mix Tape (please dont steal my idea)

Thanks Mr. Minor.

I'm actually a drummer since I was in high school, but I've never given it the full potential that it would deserve. It's always been, like hobby #10 on my list. Sometimes I'll bump it up to #2 or something, but that's just it, I've never really put enough effort into it to justify calling myself a drummer.

That being said, I can kick a mean beat. Mean, I tell you!
