I chose bass because I'm not that hot at guitar on expert; and I know there's at least two people in the society who're awesome at it. So would be considered more of a 'back-up' even then.

Drums disorientate me and singing? Cats, squawling would be a better description. Can't get the pitch.

It's more likely than you think.

I'm still working on it, but I'm playing the majority of songs on expert; It kinda helps that I actually know all the songs off by heart

If not, I'll Wedge it up at the drums until I can FC stuff on expert.... Just not looking forward to Run To The Hills >_<

This thread was meant to be a "So, can we actually do this shit?" topic not a "Who wants to do what?" but since it is now the latter, I guess that means we can do it, and we're gonna damn well try anyway?
