Need a string player? I started on violin a local youth orchestra. Learned under the Suzuki method of "playing by ear." Switched to viola in fourth grade. Never learned to read music well though. Just when the youth orchestra was starting to teach us to read music, the band director got rather full of himself and told our family he wasn't about to share us with the drum and bugle corps we were also in. We feel like he even made rehearsal night on the same night just to clash with it and make us choose (there'd never been a conflict up to that point). He basically told us we had to choose one or the other. So we chose drum corps! His loss, my older sis was the concertmistress, and next oldest sis was first chair cello. Anyway, I never could read music well. Just enough to get by and be more of a reminder trigger set in front of me. But as soon as I heard anyone play the piece, I was ok. Oh, and before you take me into your little musical group, you might want to know I haven't touched a viola since high school. Oh, and to make this a sort of on topic post....thanks for all the spoiling!

Gee, no takers? OK, I won't wiggle my way into your musical group. Oh well, I guess I can understand why you wouldn't want a thread-killing wanna-be viola player who can't read music and hasn't touched a viola in 30 years.

I played last chair clarinet in high school. It was a big band so I must have been really bad. Can you still use me?

There was a little note in here from the moderator that said something about "a little reminder to get the thread back to a spoiling one", and now the gentle reminder is gone. That's why I didn't answer WHO!! Of course, we could use you...and Dogdoc, too.

Well, considering the fact that this thread was on a show that has already aired I thought the gentle reminder from the Moderator was a little unnecessary...but our Mods are the best and they have to do their job! Hey, I haven't played anything but piano since sometime in the late 70s or early 80s so I don't think we are a picky group! The more the merrier. If you can't play bring alcohol.

Oops. I didn't see the gentle reminder. Hope it wasn't here when I posted! And hey, I did end my post sort of on topic! OK, lets make a thread about this then..... The Musician's Club And now back on topic..... Thank you everyone for all the great efforts in spoiling! I read this thread often, just never have much to add to post (unless its off topic it appears!
