I Was A What?

Quiz Me
Obi was
a Romantic Musician
in a past life.

Astig. Talagang dapat "romantic" musician. Hindi ba pwedeng plain musician lang?

Anyway, speaking of music. I was so excited with this upcoming plan to play on a band again. Yeps... rock band. Not that band with a skimpy-wearing baton-twirler for a dazzler.

We've been long thinking about it with the guys here in the office and we actually jammed a few songs back in last year's Christmas Bash but there had been nothing regular that came out from those sessions since we lacked a good drummer.

Enter the noob, Mike. A new joiner here at work that I personally interviewed back when he was an applicant. We learned a couple of weeks ago that he's a drummer in their church so everything else fell in place after that. We instantly had the spur to rethink about our plans to do regular jam sessions.

I was a bassist in my highschool band but I can be comfortable on the rhythms too. It might also be a plus that I can do back-vocals on rhythm guitars (I can't sing while on bass). But it seems everybody else here knows - and wants! - to play your regular guitar so back to the bass for me. Just no leads, please. I've always wanted - dreamed! - to do leads ala Santana but the fingers just won't obey my will. Lazy gits.

As of now, we have four songs in mind to practice on: "Daliri" by Kjwan, "High" by Speaks, "Tatsulok" by Bamboo, and "Narda" by Kamikaze. I've already researched on those songs' bass tabs and downloaded them on my player so I could babystep on playing them at home. The riffs are pretty easy anyway.

I'm just excited iL got to play again. Yahoow, band band band!
