Hi!! I'm a new fan and I've been using this site since last month and realized that I haven't made an account here yet. So, I decided to make one.  [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]  [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] 

      I fell in love with Scandal's music and Mami's guitar play especially Take Me Out. That's why I decided to learn playing guitar (I'm just a beginner tho) . Because of them I started to like music. 

       Anyways, I hope we all get along well!!! (￣▽￣)ノ

Hi kabayan! Kumusta? I'm glad that SCANDAL becomes your inspiration to learn music. Just don't forget to diversify your musical influences to become a better musician.

Have fun and enjoy!

Salamat Kabayan!! I'm already liked some bands, artists and different style and genres of music. I'm doing my best and I practice everyday. Thanks for the advice!!! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]  [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Hi rikitasu,

Welcome to SH !

I took up bass guitar many years ago ( I am old ! ) back then in England everyone wanted to be in a group and I was cunning and took up bass because every group needs a bass player and it worked, my fingers were too short and fat for lead guitar anyway

But it is great to be able to play a musical instrument so dont give up.

Hope you have fun here.

Thanks!!! I'll never give up!! I want to experience being in a band someday  [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]  [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Hello Rikitasu! Playing the guitar is fun and don't be afraid to play with other people if you get the chance.

welcome home @rikitasu

keep rocking and have fun here, I'm a beginner to, and I hope we can play guitar together someday

Welcome to Heaven. 

That's great Scandal influenced you to play guitar.  The band that gets you to pick up an instrument is the band that will stay with you a long, long time.  The Who got me playing guitar 36 years ago, and they're still my favorite band (but Scandal is creeping up in the ranks because they're so darn enjoyable).

Thanks guys!!! reading your comments really motivates me (ﾉ´∀｀*)

Hmm? So Maminoodles from USA is also a kabayan of mine? Haha. Ei Rikitasu, don't give up trying to learn the guitar. I used to like playing the guitar, just the basics though. Even now, I bought a guitar which I seldom play. And it's not like I can play it well to begin with. If you're aiming to be like Mami, you need a lot of practice. Better strive to be like Haruna first, but then Haruna is also very good at her guitar. Lol.

Right now, I strive to be like my classmate who is really good at playing the guitar. I still have a very long way to go but I don't plan on giving up. Thanks for the advice!!! (*ﾟ∀ﾟ)

Welcome, rikitasu!

I hope You have fun here and stay motivated to learn playing the guitar.

.clap.

Learning guitar is a challenge, but you can learn a few chords and actually play some songs pretty fast vs. say the violin!

Couple of hopefully inspiring quotes from Haruna from TGE's translated 2006 blogs:

“The song we're currently practicing is super fast～(x_x;)
It's a problem that my fingers won't move↓
But, I can't hold back the others...I'll desperately do my best☆
 
Haruna hereッ★

I played the F chord today too～(・∀・) haha
I can't produce a clean sound no matter how many times I do it～↓↓
I'm doing my best to press down the strings...but I can't do it well(>_<。)
My hand seemes crampedッ♪♪ haha
It sucks, so I'll do my best☆★”

Hello, 

Hello, Kabayan. Enjoy SCANDAL's music.
