So... theoretically... would a female be attracted to you if you play the blues soulfully, rather than (shred) metal? Even if you're a blues guitarist who plays in the pocket, and doesn't shred his pants off, who DOESN'T want to play the e minor arpeggio all across the fretboard in 3 seconds in front of people (maybe girls)? I wouldn't play to get the girls... i let 'em come, and if they don't (which they haven't), guess what, i don't really care. Musicians should play what they want to, and what they want their audience to feel. That's why sadists should play the blues, not metal
SO what's it about the bassist or rhythm guitarist that a girl just adores? I still wanna play lead though...

To be honest with you, Kash and Texgitslinger, I expected you to be guys by the way you presented yourselves, and partially it's probably coming from my subconscious half-sexist beliefs. BTW, people regard me as being very honest, so that's just me. I guess I didn't experience that many female guitarists where I come from. But I totally dig anyone who digs the blues and DIGS rock (the good kind, not the kind that makes you wonder, 'my God is this the kind they'd put in Sharon Stone's car if they finally found one,' instead of 'this is quite alright. I hope Danny DeVito hears about this.')

Is there truth to the folklore that girls are attracted to guitar players? That is, more than girls are attracted to guys in the general population?
