nothing makes me happier than those random videos my youtube recommends me of street performers and strangers making bomb ass music together i wish i was talented enough to freestyle and shit because like i think id reach nirvana if i could have that

#connor talks #its frustrating bc i am a bit musically inclined like that #like i can make up melodies and harmonies on the spot with my brain and mouth but im not good enough at any instrument to do that #like real i can listen through a song only like once or twice and know the harmonies #idk how many followers of mine listen to nsp bc i only talk abt them sometimes but dan is the same way where he can just harmonize #he's talked about it before and thats how i learned its not something that anyone just has an ear for #but like idk i miss people and i especially miss making music with people bc despite being friends with tons of musicians it never happens #like ffs the dude i date for four years? his dad collected guitars. they had a room in their house called the guitar room. its where i slept #when i wasnt yknow sneaking into his bed HDASJL which was most of the time #but like? we only tried a few times to make music and it never worked out :(#i had a buddy who knew bass + drums + guitar and another guy who knew guitar #we were all over and trying to do longview so other guitar friend was gonna do the baseline but i had to teach it to him #so it never really happened lol but like man... i wish so bad #and another time my ex's cousin came over and he actually does like shows and things a few towns over and i just wasnt good enough yknow #i knew guitar and keyboard but i was out of practice with keyboard and i was like hey why dont i learn the organ to house of the rising sun #but like. i knew the guitar part and shoulda just stuck with that lol so again it didnt happen #i mean my issue is probably patience and not trying to wow people right off the bat it takes lots of coordination to play together actually #but like we just never were brave enough and i regret it... let me think of my friend groups like...#i sang i could play guitar ukulele and keyboard... my ex could guitar... my ex best friend could sing and ukulele (we white ik ik)#lets see... my buddy john plays like a million instruments... trumpet tuba drums guitar bass... wicked talented dude #my one friend a grade younger was the longview drum dude who also knew other shit...#my buddy will in england knew guitar... was learning keyboard...#fuck who was i friends with im blanking on so many people JASDL #OH SHIT my butch friend! horse pen person! they knew drums guitar bass all that shit they were mega talented #and like i did choir for fuckin 6 or 7 years so everyone i knew there did music too #i really miss it... i dont miss that class teacher was crazy and transphobic and made me quit but i miss that ability to sing with people #for a long time i could not sing unless i was in a crowd but now i can and its lonely... imiss it #you know how much of a soul lifting experience it is to sing the circle of life in a room of hundreds of people also singing??? dude!!!!#i still remember it!!!#and my place there was special too where they were short on guys so even if my teach didnt want to accept i was a guy i did tenor parts
