[re-routed from a guitar discussion board by the community]

Hi. I'm new to this forum, but the bloggers at musicpro.com said this was a good place to ask for recommendations for music books and stuff. I'm eleven and I've been playing for three years, but I just teach myself. Usually I make up my own songs or figure chords out on my own, but if anyone knows about any good songbooks that I could use for practice, that'd be cool.

Thanks.

There was another website out there that actually suggested this place?

[parodies]

Yeah, they said you gave good advice.

[6collegecredits]

Hm.

What else did they tell you?

sorry if I get slow; I am literally making and/or uploading icons as I need them

[parodies]

They didn't say my post would end up on another website. Is your site undergoing maintenance?

No worries. /swimming through so many tags right now

[6collegecredits]

Not really.

What was the website you meant to post on?

[parodies]

guitarheaven.proboards.com. Did I get here by mistake?

[6collegecredits]

I don't know if I'd call it a mistake.

The community here...well, it has a mind of its own.

[starblaze]

I think you're on the wrong website.

[parodies]

I know that now.

[starblaze]

And someone already explained what this community is?

[parodies]

Yes, the user who responded first did.

[starblaze]

... And you don't believe any of it.

[parodies]

I can be open-minded.

[This girl totally reminds Sam of himself at age eleven.]

You should check out guitar tutorials on YouTube since they're free to watch. It might save you money buying books, not that songbooks aren't good, I just learn better watching someone else.

[parodies]

I didn't think of that.

[she's from 2006; YouTube went live only a little more than a year ago for her]

Thanks. How long have you been playing?

[whitechocolate]

Uh, about seven years.

So what's your favorite song to play?

[parodies]

The songs I write myself.

[whitechocolate]

That's pretty cool that you're writing songs so young. You should record them and post to them to the community. I dunno about everyone else but I'd like to hear them.

[parodies]

Really?

[sandinmyboots]

Are you keeping that information on your survey confidential?

[parodies]

Well, the entry's public. Can you make comments private here?

[sandinmyboots]

Yep! [Kefka then explains how to use privacy settings.] Why are you asking for all that, anyway?

[parodies]

I've never been on a board like this before.

[sandinmyboots]

...You seem to be operating under the idea that we're all crazy here.

[parodies]

I think you're supposed to say people with mental health problems instead.
