I've been in numerous bands over the years - the last "band" I was in consisted of just me; writing, playing, singing, recording and mixing everything on my own!

 

Trimming leaves me with little to no free time nowadays so the music's fallen by the wayside, sadly :(

Zed seems an unusual choice considering the equipment size.

 

During your years have you ever encountered or used a Kelly guitar or pa amp at all. I'd love to get my hands on one if possible even if it isn't working

I started an Irish folk band 25 years back, now Im in a trio who play from medieval to 18th century music, costume stuff mainly at organised banquets and still play some Irish stuff. I play melodeon, fiddle, bodhron and mandola. Its now my main source of income.

Meant to post some pics in this thread over the weekend, totally forgot! :lol: Posting here now so I don't forget again.

 

But yeah, I've got a bunch of guitars, a couple of basses, and an electric drum kit in the man cave. Nothing super expensive or fancy, but enough to keep me occupied.

I did GCE Music at school and studied piano for 8yrs under London College of Music in my youth.

Now, I tootle on the keyboards now and again but prefer playing the spoons! :D

Yup, played in the same band for years, the majority of my twenties revolved around that band and the music. We did pretty well, played some big gigs and had some wild experiences through it, all a learning curve.

 

I got a real taste for that life but I've took a step back since meeting my partner, I'm all grown up and sensible now :lol:

 

Officially, i'm still in the band but due to everyone aside from me and the guitarist basically having some serious personal issues going on we haven't played a gig in months.

Villanova Junction - notoriously hard to play so fellow guitarists tell me.
