Anybody here play an instrument or have musical talent of some kind?
Yes, an old "Melody King" 3/4 (parlor) guitar I got cheap on ebay.
I had a Stefan Grossman instructional DVD on fingerpicked blues guitar, in which he said for this genre either get an old battered one from a junk shop, or a cheap new one.
Pic related shows the guitar complete " bits of paper modification" to lift the strings high enough to stop fret buzzing.
When I've got some money together I'll get a proper guitar "set up" done at a guitar shop.
But in the meantime it does the job. I used it to record this :

punkPunk I'm not talented at all but I have played guitar, bass + vox in a few punk and metal bands over the years and also played some solo noise shows.

>>1092Based gnostic blues comrade. There's some serious potential there. Keep it up!
left_communismLeft CommunismIt's in the evening after dark,
When the blackleg miner creeps to work,
With his moleskin pants and dirty shirt,
There gaans the blackleg miner!
Well he takes his tools and doon he gaans
To hew the coal that lies below,
There's not a woman in this town-row
Will look at the blackleg miner.
Oh, Delaval is a terrible place.
They rub wet clay in the blackleg's face,
And aroond the heaps they run a foot race,
To catch the blackleg miner!
So, divvint gaan near the Seghill mine.
Across the way they stretch a line,
To catch the throat and break the spine
Of the dirty blackleg miner.
They grab his duds and his pick as well,
And they hoy them down the pit of hell.
Doon ye gaan, and fare ye well,
You dirty blackleg miner!
So join the union while you may.
Divvin't wait till your dying day,
For that may not be far away,
You dirty blackleg miner!
>>1087I play fiddle, uilleann pipes, whistle and some banjo - all within the Irish tradition (though I like Scots and Asturian music too)
Here's a vid of Uilleann Pipes in case you've never heard them before:

I learned to play accordion here in the ITMA:

>>1087I'm not sure why folk music is considered prole when it was invented before the Industrial Revolution.
This is a punk and industrial music thread now.
