CB Band!H

CB Band!

Hey all! Just thought of this - if you play an instrument (or want to play one) feel free to join this! All levels of players are accepted, from average to ace! Just shout out if you want to be in it! We won't play songs or anything since this is all digital, but I might suggest assigning "chairs" if this kicks off.

I don't know much about alter egos but if anyone's alter ego(s) are instrumental, you can add them, too.

Also, if you are needing help with anything regarding your instrument, feel free to put that out too! I'm sure anyone will be happy to help you. 

I play the flute in my school band. I'm in!

I play piano and cello. Both are so wonderful and make me feel peaceful. I love instruments. I might not be able to post.

Cool, Scylla! It's all right that you might not be able to post. I get that life happens outside of the CB, too. :)

I play the piano, and wholly the piano-- I'm not in any bands or anything, I just take lessons, but I'm getting pretty good at it! Not ace or anything, but I can play some kind of complicated pieces...

I play the violin and the flute. If anyone's interested.

@St. Owl, 

I didn't know you played piano!

Just something to think about...at my school, if you have two years of piano, you can take percussion! Just sayin...not trying to force you into it or anything...just a thought if you were interested...it might be different at your school (and I apologize if you're homeschooled (I go to a public school) and/or you took this the wrong way. Just wanted to point it out.)

Er... I sort of play piano.

[Spyro] Not well!

Shut up, you don't play anything.

[Spyro] First of all, I'd rather listen to me playing nothing than you playing horribly. Second of all, I do play something!

Oh, really? What do you play?

[Spyro] Synthesizer and electric guitar, so now YOU shut up!

Fine, then. Be that way. I'll write the darn songs! I bet nobody else has my natural talent for songwriting!

[Spyro] I bet nobody has your natural talent for filling up wastebaskets with scrapped song lyrics, either.

Fff--ahhh! *lunges for Spyro*

[Spyro] *dodges and flies off, laughing hysterically*

I hate that guy.

Anyway, I guess we're both in. If you need a songwriter, that is.

[Spyro] You don't need this one!

Get outta here!

 

P.S. Wow, I just realized how long this post got.

@hotairballoon, 

you can certainly write the songs if you want! ;) 


@Spyro,

if you're interested in that electric guitar/synthesizer position, I believe it's open! :)

This is my third year playing flute. Our school doesn't really do first chair, but not to brag, I think I'm the best of the flutes. I hope that didn't sound really snobby, I just think that I am very good at it.

I would love to play trombone, trumpet, or saxophone too. I'll learn someday. The only reason I didn't do trombone in the first place is that I thought it would be too big for me. I'm really short. One of the five smallest people in my grade.

Cool, dragonrider! I've always wanted to play percussion or saxophone, too. Is there any sort of sax you're interested in, or just sax in general?

Oh! Oh! Cool thing, my brother got into Allstate as a trombone player in high school. He also made it to Allstate orchestra, which takes only the top four out of nine chairs. I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL HIGH SCHOOL BECAUSE THE MUSIC IS SOOOOOOO COOL AND WAY HARDER THAN MIDDLE SCHOOL MUSIC!!!

Violin. I've played violin since I was six but that's not really a band thing. I can play piano (but not that well). I sing and take voice lessons, and if you need a cello, then I can also do that. I'm in I suppose! This is a fun idea, Panda!

Hi, Abigail S.! Thanks for the compliment!

Would you like me to put you down for violin, piano, singing, and cello? Or just one/a few of those?

MapleSyrup, 

do you want me to put you down for viola, violin (a? Or was that just a typo?), and trumpet?

Thanks!

Put me down as viola and trumpet please! Not a typo.... If you search up Violina on google it comes up as violin but I do play violina.
