Sorry for going on so long about it...when I get to talking about horses, I can go on forever. Nice to know that you like horses though.:)
Oh really? that's neat that you played those. But I understand what you mean about not getting to be very proficient at any of them. It's alot to keep up with! My bro, Irl, also wants to learn flute and piano. So w/e.
My other older bro, Sean, is into the horses too, and he plays banjo.
I used to like fiddle music best, banjo second, and guitar 3rd, but I realized that they all can be just as beautiful in their own sense.
I like guitar alot, especially in bluegrass. Ever hear Clay Jones? He's really good.
About getting another fiddle, I have a couple reasons. 1, I have a crazy attraction to fiddles. 2, I want to get another nice fiddle, so that I can get one of my brothers (or sisters) to play with me, like in Ashokan Farwell. It's beautiful. And 3. because I want to get into restoring violins/fiddles.
So do you have a Martin guitar? Just curious. I've heard that they're the best around, (but very expensive.)
About having more of an inclination to play higher quality instruments, more than low quality, I believe that's definitely true. When I used to have that cheap violin, I often felt like giving up on fiddle, but it just wouldn't let me. I'm so glad I didn't. Now I play this one for about 1hr 30 min. every day. I would play more, with school, chores, and horses, I really don't have the time.
lol, I might play a little better than you have in mind, but nowhere near good.
I have high goals though. I believe if I keep at it, I'll make it. I've been playing slower songs when people ask me to play a tune for them. My bros are like "Hey, play something fast!" And I'm like "Nope, I'm not good at it yet." It feels like I'll never get there, but when I think back...
Well, I've gone on long enough.
See ya around.

Well, my brother likes to do most of the things you have on there, but he loves to fly, so I guess he doesn't know why you don't. lol. He plays bluegrass guitar, and is learning mandolin.
I've been playing the violin since I was 5 actually (so that would be about 9 years.) but I never really improved, till someone gave me a much nicer violin. I practice every day, but I consider myself to play really badly, so I just say that I play it 'a little'.

(I replied to your comment, but it didn't reply to here the first time.)
Thanks alot for the welcome =)I need to post more, but I have a hard time getting around to it.
Thanks again.
JD.
P.S. when I clicked on your profile, my bro was reading your 'interests', and he said, "Man, he needs a pilot's license." (he's working to get his.) So, w/e. I think good guitar playing, is more interesting than flying. ;)
