Should BrilloPad sort out his life?

Ah, no concept of what playing a banjo actually is then...

Dig through yer record collection, fair bet I'm in there somewhere playing guitar or mandolin but I'm not going to say where. Playing an instrument is therapeutic and really can turn into a Plan B. I was playing pro before the IT stuff and I'll be going back full time this year with no regrets. Not for the money you understand, just the babes.

Cliphead its a strange move from music to IT. What made you do it?
PS I tried to learn the guitar once but I fear I didn't have the ability.

The learning the banjo idea is not so bad. Getting something to immerse yourself in is a good idea. And once you've learned to play, music cures a variety of ills.

What instrument do you play, sas?

(other than the meat-flute)

Well, I finished studying, moved back to Scotland, found myself short of rent money so went busking. Made a mint doing that (seriously), got asked to join a band, was kinda good so asked to join a better band, tours, recording, TV, all that carp. All through this time was messing with computers and when the music stuff got tough I bullcrapped my way into a developer role, never looked back after that.

I play the flute beautifully...

Anyone who thinks I am fine should probably get sorted out themselves...

I think you are fine BP.

Beer.

Next?

Just one? one pint? one gallon?

I rarely drink - partly cos it has little effect.
