Welcome from NC! I'm a guitar player who picked up a keyboard to play around with a few years back. Still not any good but I like messing around with it from time to time haha.

I play piano and keyboard but don't usually enjoy a pipe while doing so. I'm afraid of the errant hot ash damaging the keys.

Haha, that is awesome. If i saw someone smoking a pipe while performing i would be stoked! I play guitar and have found that a pipe while playing is difficult in most settings other than noodling on the back porch. Welcome from Salt Lake City!

Welcome to the forum, from Southern California. If you're looking for a challenge, try fold & stuffing an entire OGS flake with your left hand while playing an EbmMaj9 chord with your right. Worst case scenario, you'll have an interesting story to tell. Best case scenario, you'll have to beat the ladies off with a stick.

Enjoy the journey!

Welcome from Arizona.
I have played bass guitar over 45 years, even earned my living that way for quite a few years.
Grew up playing piano. Played trumpet in grade school and double bass in high school. I dabbled with pipe organ of all things for the short time I was in college before throwing that over to go on the road with a regional band travelling all over west Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico.
Looking back, I probably should have finished college. :rolleyes:

I never went to college at all but if I'd been in your shoes I'm sure I'd have done the same thing! Playing music and entertaining people is what I want to do forever. There's something about it that's just my thing I guess, I'll never be wealthy but I'll also never be bored doing this.

I'm fascinated by pipe organs BTW, they must be the world's largest musical instruments by a mile. The complexity of them is mind-boggling to me.
The pipe organ is pretty much a mechanical synthesizer and I wish I knew how to play one.

Welcome from Brazil. Dabbled with bass guitar but not to the point I could play and smoke a pipe at the same time! Pipe Organs; yeah, they are something else!
