So you're an audiophile - are you also a musician?

I have sat in with Eric Clapton, Peter Frampton, Tommy Castro ,The Eagles, BB King ,The Allman Brothers and many many others it is great I go to my dedicated music/theater room fire up my Fender Cyber Twin grab my strat or SG and punch in a concert dvd or a cd and play along with people I could only dream about before

Have been playing drums for 20 years....actually played professionaly for a few years during and after college. Play piano (not very good) and have recently taken up guitar.

Piano, acoustic guitar, electric guitar. No notable talent however. It is amazing fun getting the guitar out and playing along with a record on the stereo though - you really get into the music more than just tapping your feet.

I appear to be in the minority. While I took organ lessons for a few years in elementary school, I can neither sing nor play. But, I do love music. Maybe when I retire ...

When I was 10 years old, my parents forcibly made my brother and I to join a "Tamburitza" group. Any Croation-Serbian audiophiles will know what this is. Did that for five years, learning to read music, play a Brac, sing and dance. College days took me to Music Appreciation classes, learned the keyboard and learned to compose music. Paul McCartney inspired me to play bass guitar at age 15. At age 43 bought a Yamaha bass and Peavey amp. Now I jam to CD's and FM at home. All by ear. I've been into audio for about 24 years now. Music is my main focus is my waking hours.
