Ignore this A) musically ungifted person, B) lazy ass who clearly did not have the stamina to through with it.

Any instrument is fantastic to learn.
Chicks dig it.

"Finished piano" - No, not amus
8th good enough.

Violin for 1 yr and guitar for 1 yr. Will stop violin once I hit 8th grade.
Will stop guitar lessons in 3 years time.

Regarding those extra HSC marks for doing AMUS/LMUS...I haven't heard about those. Don't you have to do music performance as a subject and it counts as any other subject? I mean, if you are good enough to be LMUS then clearly you'll be capable of getting 5 or so marks higher than one who is only 8th. But I don't think you get a freebie 5. There is no such thing as freebies in Years 11&12.

P.S. Elton John rocks. Oh- and it's SIR Elton John to you.

i was forced to play piano because my grandma teaches it. I used to hate it with a passion, so i quit when i go to year 11.

throughout year 11 i didnt touch it at all, but i always had a few songs that i wish i could play, anyways one day i decided i wanted to learn Centerfolds - Placebo...so i did...youtube tutorial (Y) :D

and i kept practising it and really liked it...i used it as a study break...

now i'm learning the proper My Immortal - Evanescence so that i can play it for my friend's HSC performance...there's still a few other songs i wanna learn tho :D
