Track? I think they do. Even tho I couldn't play the guitar good, when people saw that I was wearing it, people responded positively. Got a few numbers. More recently I played a Bluetooth speaker with great music, people just went on their way. Thoughts?

So, in one instance you played music yourself, and another instance you played a radio. I can't image there's any perceived difference

people give guitar players way too much respect.

guys at college would get these huge following of girls hanging out with them while they played their guitars

but when i took my accordion? not a single soul wanted anything to do with me.

guitards.

So I won't get the same response with a hang drum?

Interested in a hang drum caus3 it's new, not that many people know about it and I think I can actually be good at it. Tho I like listening to guitar more, so I dunno. Hang d4um looks more fun to play as well. More portable too. Sound is ok

lol

I... I just don't understand Naer. I mean... I really don't get how one can be this clueless.

It's either an act, or he's a hopeless sod.

Nah, it's all about the gourd harp. You can't keep the chicks off you with one of those.
