I'm surprised no one has done this yet. Here's an opportunity to let others sample your wares. Let's see a video or hear an audio clip of your playing.
I'll start it off with a YT clip from a FDP Jam a decade ago. Uncle Pat is singing, BradP is on bass, Buckeye Blues on the black Tele, and I don't recall the drummer's name. They had already started this slow blues burn and I decided I wanted it. I'm setting up at the beginning of the song that have solos at about 1:00 and 8:00.
My tone isn't great because I didn't get a chance to tweak it, but oh well. BTW, I'm the backwards one.
Watcha got?

OK, I'll play.
Here's a little promo video from 2018 of Stallion Stallion Wichita Facebook. I'm the bass player, sitting behind the front row. Due to my back, I can't stand for a whole set with a bass around my neck. If you keep watching, you'll also see me play the accordion. Some very sad news is that our drummer, Marc Mourning was killed in a pedestrian accident on Jan 31. We will be missing a great guy and a great drummer. Our plans are to continue as a band. We have another drummer lined up.

Wow, sad news, themaestro.
I'll play. I ain't askeert.
Here's me with some pals at a warehouse jam a few months back. I'm playing the pointy guitar and barking into the mic like a lunatic. I know I can't sing, but...that never stopped me!
Here's me on guitar with some pals at an acoustic thing in someone's living room. Someone take that mic away from that guy.

There is no way on God's earth that I would post a clip of my playing on an Internet forum full of guitarists ;-)

I posted this over on the FDP awhile back. I composed, played, and recorded this a few years ago. It's kind of strange considering I consider myself an electric guitarist, primarily. soundcloud.com/ninworks/solitario

Sorry LM, I didn’t mean that to sound snarky. I just don’t have the guts to post anything on here. I can’t bear to listen back to any recordings/ videos we’ve done, and I don’t have copies of any. :-(

I don't think anybody took it as snarky. I get it. Generally when I listen to myself I wince. I've been playing for how long?... and all I got is that?

I thought there'd be more people willing to share their talents.

I didn't take any comments as snarky. And I posted vids of me playing to prove that if I can do this musical monkeybizniz, anyone can. Most of you WAY better than me.

Thank, guys. We have tried to be more than just a "jam band", as many are, and yet... this band will be lucky to get a half dozen gigs this year. There are few places to play and the places there are will either pay crap or demand 4 hours or both. Plus, having the word "blue" in the band name will automatically close some club owners' ears even though we play a mixture of genres like everyone else. I could go on and on, but for anyone that has tried to keep going out and selling a band when you get into your 60s knows how much that sucks.

Good chops Geno! You guys have a great groove going on. Thanks, and I hope we have a good groove going on. Our drummer's nickname is Dr Groove, so if we don't then he's got some 'splainin to do.

Here’s one from about 5 years ago with a band that no longer is together. I’m the guy singing Hadden Sayers with the long hair.
