I had to sing solos I was also picked out of my whole class as a 7th grader that the Middle School music teacher auditioned every email in our grade and pick-5 us and formed a 5 all boy singing group and we competed in a couple competitions in middle school with other schools and we also got third place our seventh grade year in the Middle School talent show and we won first place in the middle of school talent show our 8th grade year I also took singing lessons for two years two mornings a month it was like every other Tuesday before school with the school music teacher I have been on stage to sing a couple songs with bands here in there and I've also sang with a band a few gigs while their lead singer was having a knee replacement surgery this has been about 18 years ago or 15 years ago every time I've got on stage let me sing one song they keep me up there for two or three I've always been a good singer I sing karaoke I'm also I've been teaching myself guitar for 25 years I got a coustic guitar and now I have two electrics a couple lamps I also had two years of piano lessons as a teenager and also played in the Middle School band played the clarinet for two years in the Middle School band and I've always been musically naturally talented I can jump on a drum set and never had a lesson in my life and I I can play the drums to the body rock song I know I also have a Yamaha Keyboard has got to keyboards on it and all kinds of background beats and stuff on it self-taught on the harmonica I've been playing that for quite a while I think I'm pretty good at it I can cover from I can sing Axl Rose to Vince Neil Motley Crue GNR the doors Steppenwolf you name it I can sing it I have dyslexia and add and if anybody knows any lot dyslexia I may have struggled in remembering what I've read through school and then learning how to read but I have a weird musical mind that I could hear a song one time and I might not hear that song for 10 years and as soon as that song comes on the radio again 10 years later I can hear the second or third beat of the song I already recognized the song I already know it and I remember the words to the whole song Only hearing it once or twice in my life I can also name every song coming on the radio with its country or rock or rap alternative and grunge in about the first one two or three Beatles song I've already know what the song is can't remember something I read 10 minutes ago in a history book but I can't Forget music ever if I even heard it once was the United States Marine a veteran of Desert Storm work construction play Semi-Pro baseball till I turn 40 and I want to dedicate the rest of my life to trying to be in a band I don't play Baltimore so I've got a lot of time on my hands I'm single never been married have two sons would like to just be somebody's Jam partner if they just need to jam or would love to be auditioning to be lead singer in a band if I had a guitarist that wanted to work with me a little bit my guitar isn't terrible end I would progressed quickly with a teacher being dyslexic reading things out of books and trying to learn them and Implement them is very hard if I had a couple guitar lessons it would go a long way with me and my guitar playing would evolve quick had my own acoustic for 26 years or so anyway that's me in a nutshell except for I've left out I did tell you I'm a marine I am a crazy son of a bitch I love all kinds of music and can sing all kinds
