testimony ko lang po as a guitar player...

3 years palang ako dito sa tate.

even if i was a guitar player for introvoys, i realized that i...we all needed a dayjob in order to continue living normally.

went into a number of dayjobs. caregiver, staff member for a board and care facility for the mentally challenged, kitchen staff(tagaluto ng chicharon)

mechanic for shock absorber company.

salesman for a hiphop warehouse.

until i became a salesman for a music store...slash guitar teacher.

when i became guitar teacher again....dun na ako nabuhayan ng loob sa buhay ko dito sa america....started gigging again....

now i play for a number of bands....mixed ng filipino at kano.....played in a few hotels, casinos and bars from LA to nevada.

im happiest when im playing....because that's the only thing i am good at. all those other jobs.....i either outgrew or got fired from..

to quote steve lukather...

do you really wanna know what i would be if i didn't become a guitar player? you want fries with that?

guitarist telling the drummer what the intro to laklak was. caught on video.at binilangan pa ang drummer 1-2...1-2-3..lol

Hey guys, sine most of yous got more experiences. Don't you think a good guitarist is a great man. I mean, its not only the time you spend practising. It is also the time of your life. How about the other opportunities you missed just to play and practise. How about the money you spend on your gear instead of being fun and hang ouit with your friends and spend some money doing that. How about ur frustrations and doubts if you can succeed and really become a better guitarist and if what your doing is right. How many of you find a difficulty in anything. Isn't it enough that you study your chords and scales. What are we missing. Should we listen to toe right kinds of music? Is there something within us that we cant overcome. How should we know if all of these will lead us to something we dont like. Dont you feel weird when choosing to play and practice rather than studying or doing something "at the right time". I mean, we all got tons of problems and frustrations other than our musicianship. How about the demands of being able to play gigs through sleepless and never ending nights just to take chances. How about the hardships of transportation when jamming every week. How about each and every hassle life may bring us?

Whatcha Think?
Kung ganyan kadami ang doubts mo sa pagiging musician, then don't even bother to be one! It suppose to be a natural thing when it comes to following your heart. Don't worry, playing guitar is a good hobby too!

maski naman mag doktor ka marami ring magiging problema eh!

Buti nga kayo ay magagaling nang maggitara, e ako yung skill ko nung high school di nagbago, kaya ngayong may trabaho na, bumalik pa rin ako sa paggigitara at alam kung may di ako ginawa at isinakripisyo para gumaling maggitara.

Haha, nabump.  Sabi nga ni Doc Arie - Enjoy lang, don't over-complicate.  Consider it as a release, at least I do.  :)

kung yan ang nararamdaman mo,  hindi ka musician, you are free to choose, ako nag aral ako ng mabuti, pero i also do these things, and dont regret a a single thing, ang  ppinag sisihan ko nag laan ako ng time and money for other hobbies na akala ko mapapasaya ako, magic cards, pets, and girls. so lahat tayo may recreational activity, kung ano ang kailangan mo at magpapasaya sayo, hindi kung ano ang nakikita mo sa iba. marami nga silang chicks, mapapamansa nya ba sa mga anak nila yan, pero yung nalalaman ko mapapamana ko sa mga anak ko. sana matagpuan mo ang dapat sayo kapatid.  :mrgreen:

 :-D ahahaha! isang taon yata akong hindi Philmusic tapos nabasa ko ulit to :-D

tama makapag pitch in na rin....

Tol in 16 years of trying to pursue a stable music career as a guitar player i think i retired at least 4 times only to comeback maybe 6 months after retirement... after i sold all the gear.... imagine the daunting task of re-acquiring gear all over again then do the same rounds in the scene... the fun and hassle included... but hey if you really love playing guitar you'll keep coming back after rebounding from those tender moments (or emo moments)...ah well happy anniversary to this thread hahaha :-D
