I play drums and not recorded anything I have played in years.
Got the sticks out last year and jammed with a band with intentions of joining them. Also my work started a band to play charity gigs etc and played a couple of gigs with them
Due to my battles with Depression and pressure of going into a studio to record a new album caused me to take a dive.
Haven’t lifted the sticks since |

That's,a real shame but I understand the pressure of the studio, for me though I love going into the studio, until they hit the record button  you should try and get yourself back playing. I find that recording music and gigging helps me through all stages if my life |

Not musically talented but I used to play the organ, learned when young through Yamaha school of music but it was more training than talent tbh, as I got older I stopped practicing regularly then eventually just stopped altogether

Drummer here, and played a good number of gigs including King Tut’s. Recorded an album with my last band which was good fun, and available on all good streaming services!
Sadly not a full time career though

"I used to play bass, been a very long time since I played though. Even longer since I was in a studio.
I got an accoustic last year but still not got around to playing it yet."
You should try and get into playing again. What sort of music did you play ? |

"I can play the triangle!!!
Can also play guitar (badly), piano (not so badly), flute and sax (quite well).
The haven't picked up an instrument in years "
Good on you, being a keyboard player I play some piano mainly due to having an upright in the house for years that my mum played x |

Great stuff, I was full time back in the 80s into the 90s. Then we split, till me and my brother put the band back together again.released our last single 2008. And since then just been recording and doing the odd gigs that suit. Would love to do it full time again but hey no. |

Played in a few band's, still playing in 2 active ones also do a bit of solo stuff. Play guitar and sing. Done a few recordings and had 2 of my covers played on the national radio. Played at the barrowlands couple of times and a couple of festivals as well that's a great buzz |

"I am a drummer (Darren) been playing for 31 years, teaching, recording, session work and gigging with my band most weekends and love every minute of it.
Drummers bang harder lol X "
But keyboard players know how to use their organ better |
