Hidden talents
 

Does anyone have any talents hidden or otherwise?
I've always played guitar (for about 16 years) but never done anything with it other than play for myself or occasionally attempt impress the odd date. But last week I posted a video on fb of me playing guitar, I have no idea what I was thinking as this is something I would never normally do and don't know if I'll ever pluck up the courage to do it again. But to my surprise it went down really well and was flooded with positive reactions and comments, so yea kind of a success story and it felt pretty good!

sounds pretty good quiet guy, I've always liked and appreciated guitar music,

you should post some videos up on youtube,
if you're a tad apprehensive of reactions it could be better than facebook as it's pretty anonymous,

I used to be quite good at drawing, even had a website for it at one point,
but as the old adage says "if you don't use it, you'll lose it".. very true for most 'talents'
it can feel quite good getting a bit of praise for your efforts.

Forgot to mention, it wasn't a very good website,
A friend created it for me, and being SA I never was good at reciprocating the friendship so she eventually took the site down :smash:

there's a thread about drawings etc on here,
Think I've deleted my original post, but Kevin Hodge quoted an unfinished drawing I posted ages ago, my username was Jerry

My talents are so well hidden even I don't know what they are.

thanks Raks,..yes, there's loads of talent in that thread,.sadly a fair bit of it has been deleted,
I can recall that Generation Erm done an incredible pencil drawing of a dog,.. that completely blew me away how good it was,
Black-Sheep-Boy is a real talent too as was/is TsauceX to name but a couple.

I think I moved away from drawing because I was asked to play bass in a band,.. sadly I had to spend so much time practicing playing bass that the drawing fell by the wayside,..
it's really sad as I deep down never enjoyed playing in that band and I was crap at playing the bass too, so it was a total waste :-/
