I play the radio and the 300 CD Disk changer. I am really good at it too.

True, true



Good point, it must be a musical instrument if it plays music!
I play the turntable myself, I can even play it at two speeds, 33 and 45 RPM, beat that for talent

Yup, you definitely are the "Creepy Uncle" of these forums.

It's all lies, man, filthy rotten lies!
They never proved a thing!

Wendy ... I know you're in there ... I hear you playing that organ again ...

First let me say:
"Holy FRAK, Robert!   That music is freaking great!   The vocalists on both those albums have some killer pipes in their time.  Takes me back to my favorite era of music, the 80's!"

As for myself,   I sing for a living down on Bourbon Street in the French Quarter in New Orleans, LA.
 
Right now, I am down to doing substitute work, which is actually quite liberating, and quite profitable.   The scenery always changes, and I am probably getting more work as a sub than I was in a regular band.  (Although, I did take reduced days when I was in a regular band because I don't want to burn myself out.)  


We play mostly classic and 80's rock, so from AC/DC to ZZ TOP and almost everything in between.

So, if you ever find yourself in New Orleans, LA on Bourbon Street, you might just find me playing at either the Famous Door, the Bourbon Bandstand, or Krazy Korner.  I'm a long haired dude with pretty decent pipes, and I almost always wear some kind of t-shirt with a funny saying (sometimes, very politically incorrect), or a pop culture reference (lots of Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica stuff, but a few others thrown in there too)  I also usually wear round, dark sunglasses, and one thing I hear almost every night I play is: "Hey, Ozzy!"  LOL!

I love my job because it makes me the money to get the tools I need to pursue my hobby, storytelling, movie making,  CG modeling and CG animation,

  As one of my favorite quips goes: "When I'm not busy being a Bourbon Street Rock Star, I am a full on, bona fide geek!" 


Here is a video of one of my bands at the Famous Door from a few years ago:


The guitarist standing to my right (your left on the screen) is my roommate.  Sadly the guy shooting the video decided to stop filming just as my roommate was ripping into the solo, because my roommate can slam that part like no one's business, and he does it all by himself. 

Here's a video of my roommate in a different band at the time playing the solo....



Enjoy.

Great voice Martok!
Amazing technique Robert!

A lot of musicians around here... would be cool to create an iClone project with embedded videos of each one playing something.
Similar to what is done sometimes on YT, where 2 musicians, living in different side of the world, play on the same track and then the 2 videos are composed.
Would be cool to think about something similar based on iClone....

What I love here is the presence of REAL musicians who play instruments!!
The EDM stuff on my radio all sounds the same to my old ears except when they throw something in like the Prodigy, Pendulum/knifeparty, Daft Punk and the like where some instruments are actually PLAYED not a damned piano roll on a DAW. I can definitely tell the difference.

Or sing without digital pitch correction or autotuning, right?

Yeah, I like Daft Punk, although I didn't even know who they were until they did the soundtrack for TRON LEGACY.
