Christmas Loungeroom

Christmas Loungeroom

For all those who are both celebrating and avoiding Christmas this year the Chistmas Loungeroom is a place for us all to hang out. It is especially for those who will be alone throughout this Christmas period and as a place to come together and enjoy the company of others in what can be a difficult time for many.

Feel free to post your stories, images, grievances, etc. of this period and to leave messages for other members to help each other get through this time of year.

Christmas day can be extra hard for some so this is a place for us all to get together on the day and share it with other members.

Re: Christmas Loungeroom

Talk has its limits @TAB

Maybe its something else entirely.

But doing rather than over thinking sounds wise.

I dont see "success" as a sign of virtue, but also need to be watch naivety re down and outs.

Re: Christmas Loungeroom

I played for a bit about 12 years ago before my son took it up. I would give you one of ours, but they are actually his. We have 3 acoustic and one electric and a violin.

It is non symmetrical and no good for my neck, and that was also we only had the steel string and my fingers were not calloused in the right places ... lol

Last song enjoyed on it was

Umbrellas of Cherbourg

Re: Christmas Loungeroom

Good Student level is good enough. I almost dislocated wrist playing my brothers as a kid. Strings too high ... but also a there can be the problem of blaming the tool rather than learning the craft ... it can cut both ways ...

My son is fussy, but barely touches them except sometimes transcriptions of bach ...

Music appreciators are always welcome, but I believe strongly in the value of making music ...
