Hey dudes!
I'm Max, also known as Kakan or Saxmax. You'll know the reason to why if you keep reading.
I'm 16 years old, turning 17 in September. Yeah, it's a while until then..
I do not stutter but I know people that do.
My friend, Oliver So, does. Also a friend named Daniel that is 35 years old and plays drums and percussions. He has a VERY bad stutter though, it takes him AGES to get out a word. He's been going to therapy for years and it started to fix up they said, but it's still really bad.
So I do get the point of letting stutters finish what they're trying to say and not disturb they - I would be annoyed if I got disturbed like that!
Well anyway. I'm a musician by the way. I'm the bassist in the rockband Midnight Pleasure, that Oliver So als plays in, you can listen to our songs here! (click)
I do play 5 instruments. These are;
* The drums - I'm selftaught by playing during breaks in school. I do not own a drumset.. =/
* Piano - I've been taking lessons for 1½ years now and my teacher is the best. He is not the typical teacher, he's awesome and he teaches me what I want to learn. Which is ballads, jazz, blues, gospel, pop and all different. I'm thinking of using my pianoskills in the future for being a studiomusician. So I'll need to be able to play many genres.
* Bass - Self-taught for 3 years. Not good.. I play this instrument in the band with Oliver So.
* Guitar - Nothing I'm skilled at. I just strum some chords and play some melodies at home for fun. ;d
* Saxophone - Yes! I do play this fabulous instrument. I play the Tenor and the Alto saxophone.
I play the tenor saxophone in a big band called Solna Funk Unit (we live in Solna - that's why xd). We've just recorded an arrangement of Herbie Hancocks, Steppin' In It. Yes, I've got it bounced as mp3 if you want to listen.
Well that's probably about it.
Oh yes, I'm making a forum and community for musicians and people interested in music. It's nearly done.
So well I don't have anything else to write about right now.
Although, I'm happy.
In love seriously for the first time in my life. And she feels the same for me!<3
Gotta go, ciao~!
Sayonara minnasan!
