Play it, piano man.

Scary plays piano?

Yes.

Uhhhhh auto correct. Scar

Cool. Now once I get good we need to start a musical instrument duel

Ooo, when did you start? What's your story?

Let's see

I have always loved music. Ever since I was a toddler I would sing. I eventually got voice lessons almost 2 years ago. Then it discovered I want to learn instruments. So anyway the same person who teaches me voice also teaches piano. So back in the beginning of June I started talking piano. So just a couple days ago I started trying to teach myself guitar. I tried before but I wasn't good. So I know sheet music now (or at least the basics) so I'm trying to teach myself guitar using a book I found at a thrift store. I also have a lot more instruments on my bucket list lol

Oh. I thought myself guitar with my grandpa's old fender. Then I realized how much I like Gibson over fender, started saving up for a new one.
I would take his drums, but I suck at them XD.

Lol. I just have the free guitar MT aunt nevertheless played lol. It's not the right type but I'm making it work

What type of piano do you have? Or is it s keyboard?

I have a piano and a key bored. I don't use the keyboard much tho. I'll check what brand the piano is in a minute

This is as close as I can find to the one at my grandparents house.
But there's has much darker wood, and a slightly different design.

Ooooo. I'll take a picture of mine hold on

Ooo. How does it sound?

Pretty out of tune. I'll video some and make an unlisted yt video

Ok. My parents bought me a junker keyboard after we moved to Hawaii so I could keep playing. I got a Williams Legato III for my birthday though.

I'm sorry my camera quality junk

Cool. My piano is a Wurlitzer.

Oh. I meant how do the keys sound?

I was so terrible at playing with both of my hands at the same time lol. I'm not very coordinated, but its better.

Lol.

Oh. I love impossible year and the end of all things.

Those are pretty

Yeah. I think I like breaking down my favorite songs more than I like actually listening to them.

Lol. I hate practicing but it love it when I can actually play it

I've got nothing against practice.

But I'll scavenge the internet for acapella filtered vocals or instrumentals, and if I can't fine one I annotate the song myself and try to pull out sounds and listen to them alone.

Cool

Like, when I go into music stores I like to play a short melody on each piano and decide which ones I like the best.

Naturally, I end up liking the vintage $44,500-$97,000 ones the most lol.

Lol same

That is middle c to g back down to middle c

Oh. Definitely not a brittle twingy sound, but its not a rich somber thing either.
Ill get back to you on that.

Lol. I'm love the sound. It's just so out of tune. One of the keys doesn't work either

Oh oof. Its kind of warm sounding, which is nice.
Favorite song to play?

Mmmmmm I haven't learned many songs lol. Probably beauty and the beast

I started when I was probably 4.
Everyone in my family loves music, its practically genetic.
I lived with my grandparents because my parents were always busy. Anyway, My grandma was clearing stuff out of her storage and I fell in love with their old piano. Its shiny mahogany, the keys were still white, and the sound was very rich and somber. Now there's a lot wrong with me but I don't have bad pitch. So I was figuring out the intro to Welcome To the black parade(my anthem for literally 7 years lol), my grandparents came over and saw me. After that, they started teaching me how to play.

I got pretty good around 5 or 6. Not concert level but what do you do with no internet and no school? Piano. I was at their house a lot but my parents won't let them ship an 80 year old piano to our house just to move it again in a few years.
So everytime I visited my grandparents, My grandfather and I would condition the wood, polish the keys, check for termites all of that jazz. He passed away in January and I haven't visited them since Christmas last year. But they used to say as soon as I was out of my parents house I could get the piano.

Oh wow.

Weird kid, I know.
I think if vivid is under control in the summer I'll try to fly out to Las Vegas, see my family, fix up my piano.

Not really weird. I use my great grandparents piano. It's extremely out of toon. My grandma played on if and my mom played on it. I'm hoping one day to save my money and get one that is newer and not so out of toon

I love old pianos. The one, like I said, is 80 years old. But hey, it and its sound are perfect to me.

not mine, but like it

Yeah. I think Spinet pianos just look nicer than grand pianos. Like, if I was trying to sell a house, I'd put a spinet in the living room.

Well I mean, they do fit better
And I guess they look nicer, but I like the sound of grand pianos more

True.

I'm debating it. I'm probably just going to find a piano tunner lol

lol, yeah

How long have you ever playing?

like 11 years

welp. I'm not going to do that music battle anymore lol.

How long have you done it?

Almost 5 months

Are you enjoying it?

Sorta. I hate it but love it lol

It gets better the more you practice, you'll be able to play for fun things easier

yep. I'm waiting for that lol

Oh and I've done trumpet for like 8 years too

dude. That's a lot lol

yeah
