icastle Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 [quote name='4-string-thing' timestamp='1331589584' post='1575582'] I am massivley overrated.... A very good drummer friend once described me as "a solid player" Complete tosh, coz I am total crap! Incidentally, an ex girlfriend once described me as "adequate" I think she overrated me too [/quote] Ah but it's always so much easier to rate other people than it is to have them rate you.

Doddy Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 [quote name='risingson' timestamp='1331589870' post='1575595'] Me too. People just seem to love quantifying it all in some respect, god knows why. Maybe if some people on this site opened their minds a bit they might start enjoying music in the way that most other non-musicians do. 'Real' musicians have a knack of making everything to disgustingly clinical. [/quote] If your referring to me (in a round about way..seeing as it was us who had the disagreement),then I invite you to check out my album collection.I guarantee that it is more open minded and varied than most peoples and there will be choices that will surprise you. Being a 'real' musician doesn't stop me from enjoying music any more than anyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just a general observation of also being a working musician and probably heavy use of hyperbole on my behalf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leftyhook Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 (edited) [quote name='Doddy' timestamp='1331589653' post='1575583'] I think it helps when you are the artist relations manager for Fender for 8 years. [/quote] well that just about sums up the whole high end of the musician world doesn't it? I don't think I will be able to sleep tonight after that bit of info. Another vote for Entwistle for me. In fact the whole of the Who.

This scares me. Edited March 12, 2012 by lxxwj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
