yes...

CarrieLee said:

Handy? What's that mean? Like refinishing your floors?

violator said:

actually if that is what she means I'd have to agree

ZombieKitten said:

I'd have to say you haven't met enough musicians.

violator said:

I love handys...

violator said:

all my friends are musicians and are pretty impractical
well with the exception of a drummer who is also a carpenter

roodboi said:

No more egg nog for you...

ZombieKitten said:

Well there you go...

violator said:

my sister's got him, but he doesn't have the time to fix anything around the house, being a musician and all after hours.

ZombieKitten said:

Oh, I can imagine the conversations you two have. Musicians get such a bad rap. I've come to stereotype the folks who stereotype us. And I hate stereotyping.

violator said:

no seriously, we refuse to even discuss it, an is enough

ZombieKitten said:

Man, could you use a do-over.

violator said:

what is that

ZombieKitten said:

A chance to go back and change some things.

violator said:

If I had to choose between someone who watched sports and a musician, I'd still choose the musician, going on what other women tell me about their slobs husbands

ZombieKitten said:

Ouch...

yep.

ZombieKitten said:

Drummers are not musicians


Actually, I'm half a musician, and I think I can be handy at times. Handy, tongue-y and dicky.

Not true, Ladies . At least not here in Germany. You have to know how to build and install everything yourself here, because houses come like empty shells. You have to learn lighting, shelving, closets, wiring for the telephone system, kitchen plumbing. Before my divorce finalizes my ex will go through EVERY room of my flat to make sure everything is electrically sound, that my armoires, shelving, and closets are safe and secure, and will build me a desk for my office based on my own design. He's going to shelac and varnish that bitch himself, too

Right on!

Yes..dating him now..he plays the keyboard in a Band and also composes music..he is very gifted and talented!!

I would only get jealous over their creativity.

I was married to a bass player. I also loved a drummer for a very long time.
My husband loved me, but not like he loved his guitar.

Now he is married to his ex-drummer's wife.

Of course not ALL of them...but the ones I have dated couldn't even hang a freakin' picture on the wall the right way. My mom married a musician and he's no good around the house either!

I'm mildly handy. I can fix a few things, even diagnose your car's problems with relative accuracy though i can't fix it. I can't be bothered. That's why we have mechanics! And yes, I tend to want to be the center of attention at times, but most girls want the same thing and it threatens them I think. And think, that fevered ego of mine will drive me to keep myself in relatively good shape long after the other women's husbands are fat and bald!

Sure I may not be the most handy guy on the planet, but I'm good at oral!

A Salsero (Salsa). Also a talented published 60's Song Writer who's also a musician.

ZombieKitten said:

You're partially right. I married a sports FAN-A-TIC.

its hard for two musicians to date. star issues.

MRGee said:

Yes, two. Didnt quite work out. Their lifestyles are WAY different than mine.
I still keep in contact with one. Better off as friends
