PS It turns out that I'm a cross between a "WOODSHEDDER" and a "JAMMER" ... according to the quiz, I'm in it for the love of playing music. I need a stage like an Eskimo needs more ice. My most important critic is myself. Music is my escape, and I'm at my most content locked away in that world where me and my guitar are the only two things that exist ... but, I also feel that music was meant to be played with friends. In my opinion, a perfect evening is one spent playing songs – old favorites and new ones still to be learned by heart – as part of a group. I like to keep it casual, and most important of all, I like it to be fun.
(This is a fairly good assessment of me.)
===============
So, what does the quiz say about you? Is it accurate??

Permalink Reply by Sharon Peterson on July 8, 2012 at 5:46pm I think I'm a Woodshedder and I know I'm a fumble-fingered Newbie, but my results say I'm a Sideman/Scholar. Hmmmm ...
But it looks like almost everyone's a tie of some sort.

and like Wayne said--A poor one
Hey Wayne, is that poor of pocket or lacking in skills?

Permalink Reply by DJ on July 10, 2012 at 7:22am I was a JAMMER - "Music was meant to be played with friends.

You like to keep it casual, and most important of all, you like it to be fun." and
MENTOR - "You’re a giver. One of the best things about being a musician is being able to share your talent and knowledge with others. From teaching someone else a few chords or a whole song, to recommending a magazine for some extra-curricular reading, your goal is to give others the tools they need to appreciate guitar as much as you do."
Probably a not far off description but mostly a "wanna be ...". That was interesting. Thanks

Permalink Reply by Jason Derrick on July 25, 2012 at 11:38am Mine's a tie between "frontman" and "scholar." I'd say that's a pretty fair assessment, although I'm not sure about the frontman. However, performing does become quite addicting...
Permalink Reply by Jud Hair on July 25, 2012 at 12:29pm You'd make a fine frontman and you're definitely a scholar. Are you enjoying the Bose PA as much as you thought you would??
Permalink Reply by Jason Derrick on July 30, 2012 at 12:23pm Thanks, Jud!
Definitely loving the Bose PA, although haven't been able to use it in a live setting yet. We keep getting rained out! It sounds really good during rehearsals, though...MUCH better than my acoustic amp!

My family had a long weekend reunion in the mountains where my brothers and I were to play each afternoon and we never did get a full performance in because of the passing thunderstorms. BTW, Where was the outdoor "song writers co-op" in your video clip on your new page? Looks like some farm setting. Is it nearby??

Speaking of which, now that you're a bona fide songwriter, you should join the co-op!
