Members jonathan_matos5 Posted January 31, 2008 Members Share Posted January 31, 2008 i say if wanting to get a theremin makes me an ubergeek then yes, yes i am. a group of my non-musician friends were talking about how they were inspired to learn to play piano or guitar or (insert instrument here) and one said they wanted to learn to play dulcimer because it is not common. then i mentioned that i wanted to get a theremin and learn to play. the response was in stereo "a what:confused:" it took me about 20 minutes to explain what a theremin is and im sure that they were just patronizing me and acting like they understood. thats when the ubergeek comment came out. oh well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members low5bass Posted January 31, 2008 Members Share Posted January 31, 2008 Wow, when I brought up the subject of using Theremin my guitarist was excited! He borrowed it to scare the kiddies during Halloween (before we had the full band going). We're going to give it a try at the next practice and see if we can fit it into the arrangements. And yes, we admit we're geeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
