I tried my hand at it and know like 3 chords, but also feel it’s very hard to play and could never understand how people do it in live concerts | |

Definitely keep at it and make some clips too so you can look back on good moments captured on camera | |

Yup. Instrumental Music teacher by day, play in several bands on the weekends (at least before the 'rona hit!). Specialist on brass instruments (BMus QLD Conservatorium), probably first-year college level on keys and guitars, and not too shabby on woodwinds and drums. My 'thang' is playing trumpet and keys at the same time: . https://www.youtube.com/scottbignell
