Well first off, Sorry if there's already a thread on this, I didn't see one when i looked it up but it could easily have missed it... It seems like a topic that would be here, I don't blame any flaming I get for this.

Basically i made this thread to see of the Smosh community. Wether its guitar, drums, or fucking oboe for all I care, just post them here.

Here are mine: I've only been playing for about a year or so, but I think these are at least somewhat accurate, none are perfect and I'm very aware, no need to remind me :\
The Jester Race (In Flames Cover) -this ones horrible, but i wanted to get a new vid up so i just went with the best take I had.

Through Struggle (AS I lay Dying Cover)
This one turned out pretty good, I made a few mistakes but whatever.

Black Heart Solo Cover (Chimaira)
I guess...this wasn't...too horrible...:\ Messed up a TON on this one.

Anyway, just post a link or something to a video of you playing...anything basically.

It's me!

But seriously, I hope to start making videos soon, to show my skill (If I have any). Just seems like a really funny thing to do.

What do you play?

Hmm.

Guitar, bass, mandolin, tuba, trombone, baritone, piano, I can keep a drum beat, nothing special though.

Piano is something I just play by what I know about theory. I have no training beyond my own knowledge whatsoever... I've made some pretty decent skills though.

I couldn't do anything crazy because even if I can do some nice things on a guitar I'd just be sort of dogging it on instruments. If I could, I'd make a one man band where I incorporate seven instruments into one song.

Well, if I had a camera.
I'd probably just record myself doing improv for like 10 minutes.
Improv is the most fun anyway.

Yarr.

Either that or covering a song in a style that it shouldn't be covered in. Like... Bob Marley meets Thrash Metal?

WELL, the good thing is, I can play pretty much all instruments involved ska, so I could make a 1 man ska band. I'd just play guitar live and be like 'If you want the full treatment, buy mah cdz.'

I could make teh moneys.

Do you have any vids where we can actually see you playing?
Not trying to sound like a dick, just saying I'd like to see some live, unedited performances.
toymachine531
It sounds mostly unedited.
I'm not saying it's bad.
But it's not like, studio perfection.
Besides, videos can be just as misleading, people overlay music while "playing" guitar on camera all the time (Dragonforce).
Ashuku
I just kinda made a backing track and improvised the solos for both of those songs I posted. So yeah, they kinda are unedited.

I have some older videos, but I don't want to post those... Maybe I'll get around to making another video on my next day off.

The point is, to get the ball rolling. People need to stop talking about digeridoo's and post something of them actually playing.

I pinned this thread for the media, not degeridoo conversation!

Live, unedited, and unrehearsed. Just turned on the camera, picked up my guitar, and started playing.

That's pretty fucking good for improv.

How long have you been playing for?

Coming up on 5 years now.

Haha. Well, it definitely shows.
The experience, not the old-ness.
Ashuku
Thanks. I feel like I should be a lot better, though :\

Like... My friend Steven can shred like a mad man and hasn't been playing as long as me.
Totally Smoshin'
Very nice, Ashuku. The music you make always seems to be enjoyable.

I was at a friends house and did some guitar improv on his new Les Paul, and he recorded it onto his cell. I'll see if I can somehow get it onto my computer and show it. The quality is horrible, but some parts of it sound really cool.
MeowPic
I'll post something later if I can find my camera.

I play bass, I've been playing for almost 2 years. I play more of like, a funk bass style but I'm deff. not the best. I rather suck.

@ Asuku
Wow.
Ashuku
People need to stop saying that they'll make a video. Just make one, and post it.

toymachine531
How is it that no one can find their fucking camera? Camera's are expensive. You don't just lose them. It's probably sitting on a table in plain sight on the charger.

Stop being pussies, pick it up and record some shit.

My camera=shit. I haven't used th thing in ages, nevermind knowing where it is.
And you've posted some pretty awesome videos yourself there..

I don't have to post a video. You're a faggot no one's ever heard of, coming up with excuses why you can't show whatever you have to show.

http://www.savefile.com/files/1692871 - I have no prior education in uploading music I made, or even from my instrument. So, quality is horrible, and the guitars are out of sync because I couldn't layer. But, for what I have, I think I did okay. It's done on acoustic, since my electrics in the shop, and that doesn't help, but still, I'm proud I found out how to do this.

- It appears you have to download it... So if anybody has a website that can just host it for me, that'd be great and save the trouble. I tried Newgrounds, no dice.

Don't ever try and use that effect with an acoustic guitar again.

Yeah. That's the main problem. My only recording program is 'Sound Recorder' which is made in wma., so I had to transfer it to mp3... I really need a new recording program. Any recommendations?

I'll get my sisters camera and make a video once I get an electric. With acoustic it's not as fun.
