I would really like to hear some opinions/experiences regarding this subject!

When I was a kid learning to play tennis, I used to talk to an elderly gentleman who hung out at the courts. I was told that he was once a really good player but was now too old and heavy to bother with it. In my naive way, I used to make silly statements about the girls I was interested in, and he would always say the same thing to me: "Man, you can't tell me nothin' about women--I was a musician for forty years!" At age fifteen, I was baffled by this comment.

Then I started playing music, and I began to see what he meant! :shock:

Can anyone shed some light upon what we all know to be true?

Confidence, mostly, I think. If you have the confidence to stick yourself up on a stage and perform to a crowd of random people, you're already ahead of 95% of the male population.

Couple that with the whole 'arty' aura and it turns the most average of people into an object of desire pretty quickly. Particularly if you add a dash of alcohol into the mix. :lol:








(Well, that and incredible finger dexterity. But I'm really not going to go there, this is a family forum!)

one time i was at a local watering hole i frequented with some friends. the guitar player was running late, so my friends volunteered me. after the first set, a young lady calls me to the bar and buys me a drink. all was fine until her boyfriend showed up a few minutes later. my one and only shot at a "groupie" shot to hell. oh well.....

Musical instruments are just plain sexy (electric guitars in particular). Personally, I dig chick-musicians.

This babe is a die-hard Rickenbacker connaisseur.

Bue she's not alone, Suzi Arden was associated with the 12-string 360/12 since its introduction in 1963.

Sheryl Crow, Susan Tedeschi, Meredith Brooks, Avril Lavigne and Emmylou Harris are some of the numerous Fender chicks I like a lot.

I don't think it's true. I think it's just a sterotype.

The only reason I'm known throughout my school is cause I play gee-tar and write songs. All the girls think I'm a creep.

They are certainly girls...but you don't want them to be friends. Just up to....but not beyond.

SK...This will all change once you get old enough to start playing clubs and bars. Back in the late 70's when I was playing every weekend, I went through girlfriends at a clip of about 1 every two weeks...and mostly by my choice. Give it some time.

My opinion of musicians is somewhat jaded. When I see someone playing guitar my usual thought is, "Oh, I can do that too. Big deal." So musician's magical charms may have a harder time working on girls who actually are musicians too. :lol:

Most of the men I seem to attract are the creepy drunk ones twice my age. :shock: My ability to meet people my own age is also complicated by the fact that people my age aren't allowed to be in the places I play. Nor would they probably be listening to blues, so yeah...
