Guaranteed to put you to sleep faster than Ben Stein reading the periodical table of elements!
So I've always wanted to learn how to play the piano. I can play the flute, took it for years, but the piano has always been my real dream. I enrolled in beginners piano for this semester at school, and I've been taking classes twice a week for a month now. I thought I'd share with you a video of my pitiful attempts at playing a song! I know I'm a newb, and that piano was horribly out of key, but I'm only a month in, so I'm excited, because if I can play even one song after a month, how far will I go in a few years? =3
Yes, I know I have freakishly tiny wrists

I think I'll stick to listening to foxamoore, lol
Some stay dry and others feel the pain.
I think you felt the pain.
DUDE ONLY A MONTH!? You are KILLING IT! (in a good way) 8D
That sounds like a difficult beginners song, and your doing pretty well. But if I could comment on one thing? You NEED to curve that LEFT HAND!! I know its not your “claw” wielding old-faithful mouse gripping right hand, but, Righty is good, you should learn a few things from old Righty… Righty-O ?? Just think that your holding like a tennis ball under your palm.. Or better yet.. Your feeling up a nicely rounded women’s chest. Worked for me ;D
lol
Keep it up, and give us an other performance next month ^^
i know all about that hun...... my hands are screwed.... i used to play sax, piano, 4/5 string bass, and was learning the flute. but just cant do it now after the things that happened to my hands. is also the reason i dont draw anymore!.
I'd have to go to a club again, too!
And now, the inspirational sermon. :)
By the time she reached her fifties, my mother's wrist-bones had deteriorated to the point where she could no longer open jars, pick up lightweight objects, and so on. Someone recommended that she study piano to strengthen her wrists, and so, at about the age of 55, she began to take lessons. Her teachers emphasized protection of the wrists and gentle exercise of the tendons; and very soon, these lessons became a passion with her.
Now, at 65, she can play sonatas; and although she remains extremely self-conscious about performing in public, has played in student recitals at one of the local universities. Best of all, though, she can use her hands again.
I thought you might want to hear about this. :)
