She got me again

Looking carefully at the posts from GNU Classpath members you realize that a lot of them play an instrument. Years ago I took (acoustic) guitar lessons but did not continue this after moving.

One thing that bothered me over the years is that when I heard a nice song and started finding out how the (guitar) melody is played either I was not skilled enough or it just does not sound good on the acoustic guitar.

Three weeks ago I put and end to this situation and decided to take guitar lessons again. This time I will learn to play the electric guitar which I think is the instrument I like more. I am a big fan of indie rock and brit pop music. Listening to Johnossi and the Blood Red Shoes as well as visiting the Immergut festival (where both bands played) certainly had a great impact on my latest decision.

Just one note: If deep in your mind the idea that one day you start learning to play an instrument is buried, do not wait any longer and start learning today! I think the worst thing that can happen is that you realize that you have a little bit of talent since this means you wasted time and could have started earlier ...

After a week of practicing the pick I got with OpenMoko's Neo1973 broke :-)

Will try harder!
