The soundcloud player seems great, but I'm still on the hunt for something that can embed an mp3 here...

Most people have youtube clips up by now too

Well, what are you waiting for?

My name is Chris.

I play a lot of instruments. I'm the guy behind a band called The Riot Tapes.

You can hear our music on our Facebook or MySpace page. Links are in my signature.

A pic, as requested by PS. This is from my old punk band in Boston... have no proper ones for the new band yet. Oh well.

Hey Papa, I saw someone on here with a SoundCloud song embedded in their sig. No idea exactly how though....

My name is Rory.

I play guitar, drums, keyboards and computers, dabbling in a little musical saw and bass as I see fit. I think playing a few instruments decently is much more favourable than playing one instrument particularly well, as far as my kind of music is concerned.

My soundcloud page is here. I use it to host a mixture of stuff I do for my own enjoyment/projects and stuff I do for my band (my band is Peaks).

Great idea, as I'm not really into this whole Internet anonymity thing; nice to put some faces on user names.

David / 27 / Drums (and yeah, I've heard all the drummer jokes by now!)

I haven't got a soundclad page or any current musical projects to display but here's an old clip from the jam room a few years back:

Superfluous apostrophe in thread title removed .

I'm Tim, 31, working in Cork but a Galway native. I'm a bassist who also plays guitar. This is me during a jam last year:

This is my old band from Galway's youTube page. The band is sadly on an extended hiatus due to various factors, probably the fundamental one being that I had to move to Kerry last year. Thank you recession!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5KuFTbcsi4

Co-incidentally we all met through Boards so I would say to any posters having trouble finding band members to keep at it. You will find suitable people eventually. We went through four drummers and two singers before settling for an instrumental three-piece approach.

I'm Dermot, 30 yo and play guitar primarily and bass/keys/percussion occasionally. I've also become a fanatical user of Propellerhead Reason/Record.
Ì too was in Burma Shade and am currently writing/recording my own stuff in a little setup too far from Dublin city centre for my liking.

Me playing the instruments (programmed keys):

Me programming the instruments:

Incidentally, Lucy Gunning who sings in Burma Shade today, provides vocals for the above.

*Edit, as regards the MP3 embedder. Why not just make a video on youtube instead. You can just stick a photo on for the length of the video while it plays the mp3 tune.

yo, Daniel here in Galway. Here is me at the Puntala Festival in Finland.

I play guitar and shout in Only Fumes & Corpses
(www.myspace.com/onlyfumesandcorpses ), Neifenbach (www.myspace.com/neifenbach) and Evidence Of Decay (www.myspace.com/evidenceofdecay)

Sorry about the quality of the sound on these. We tend to play kinda loud and most cameras etc distort.

Don't have any videos of me playing alone, but here is a recent video of me playing with my band. I co-wrote this song about a visit to a particularly backwards town in Ireland!

Tommy, 22, Limerick. I play a bit of guitar, but I'm more likely to be found singing than strumming

(^A picture from my only gig with Limerick band Curious Notion)

Probably the pick of my own cover-versions there. I've written one original song as well, should really try to add to that!

I'm Paul. I took up the bass only about four years ago, and am trying to make up for lost time. Enjoying every minute of it though. I'm mainly into blues and classic rock, though I'll give anything a try. Sorry, but I have no clips of either my current or previous bands at present.

Hi everyone I play guitar and write songs. I recorded an 8 track demo recently. My friend sung the songs for me as he has a much better voice than me. Here is one of the songs. It is written about the artist Alex Grey:

howya lads, i'm Alan. i'm a bass player from limerick (and a chubby michael myers lookalike)

Lately, i've been toying with the idea of doing some original stuff with a lineup something like acoustic guitar/drums/bass/cello, maybe violin, with some vocals on top..... thing is, i cant sing. anyone interested in something like that, give me a shout.
