I can hardly play much of any instrument either.

But I'm really good at programming. I know a decent amount of languages with very little formal training. Might get into advanced web development soon.

I thought it was a pretty nice solo and I play an instrument (french horn, bass guitar) so I have some idea of what I'm saying. I thought it was pretty nice. I definitely was hearing your lines and the ideas you had. On a side note, the drummer sounded super legit.

I've been playing trumpet for 11 years now (half my life! whoo!), but I've only been playing jazz for about 6 of those years. I'm still getting the hang of it. Yeah the drummer is the same age as me but she is a monster drummer. The other trumpet player has been playing 6 more years than I have and is in the process of getting her doctorate in music. And the piano player actually doesn't play piano… lol his main instrument is sax but he said he was "learning" the piano and so he could probably "get by" on a blues…

Btw Xero (and everyone else I guess lol) - Ross's grandpa may have recorded the concert in Huntington so all may not be lost for you guys to hear a good solo of mine. I killed that concert. Some of the best solos of my life.

Wait, the drummer is a chick?! I thought it was a dude this whole time. :laugh:
I guess i wasn't paying that much attention. You guys were great though, nonetheless.

Off topic: I played against the worlds greatest plumber the other day.....BOSS!
We didn't finish though, unfortunately. :l

Doesn't really mean much, but undefeated at Anime Expo today xD

I told my girlfriend I'd play til I lose, an hour later she got mad and I had to get up :[

First time touching Brawl in months/year. Only habit I had to break is wave dashing out of shield doesn't exist :[

Lol Kanzaki. I had a friend try to tell me that those kids are some of the best Brawl players out there and I gave up trying to explain that there is a whole other world of smash players that are a hundred times better… Good work! Glad to see you playin' again… once. in a year. lol

So I did go Mario in tournament some today. No wins with him though :(

People did get hype about the set I was Mario in though.

Gotta work on my Zero Suit more. It'd make some matchups way easier. :/ Although I didn't do terribly against the D3's I played today. I still can't handle the Falco matchup well. Which sucks.

When I play with music, and I'm playing Mario I generally go for a fast-paced rockish videogame music sorta thing.

Lately, it's been http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sg7iWlqwwX4 (BECAUSE CORNERED IS SO HYPE)

Although sometimes I listen to orchestrated game music as well, because it makes it easier to not get carried away, and sometimes going all in isn't the best idea. (There's an orchestrated cornered I listen to as well!)

And sometimes J-Pop. Because **** yeah J-Pop.

If I listen to music, I usually go with Sonic music since it's almost always energetic and hype.
