Sooooooo. Fair ladies, good sirs, ghoulies, ghosties, dead and undead alike. Fellow whatever we think we are? [ eddie get to the point here? ] How many of you play instruments and would want to jam?

I'm in a band back home and missing shred sessions. I just found my guitar back -- [ a pause and then he might sound like he's devastated and talking about a lost love. ] Not my sweetheart but my acoustic.

[ and if you're thinking he's not gonna give you whiplash and then sound eager, excited as fuck at the drop of a hat then you're wrong. ] Anyway, I'm really jonesing to play. Anyone in?

If you're into metal or rock even better but all musicians welcome. The place I'm staying at isn't big but there's abandoned buildings near by and the acoustics are killer. [ and because there's some manners under there? ] And if you're in, I'm Eddie.

what's a zither? [ a lyre would be sick but he doesn't know that other one. ]

[unalign]

A zither is a stringed instrument with the strings placed against a box or a flat surface and you pluck or strum the strings to make music.

When you said rock, did you mean rock 'n' roll?

[guitarpicks]

oh shit! like a guqin? some one here plays a guqin and said it was a zither?

yeah! rock n roll. but i'll play anything.

[unalign]

I ... guess? I'm not sure what a guqin is.

A friend of mine plays rock n roll. It's very passionate and spirited, from what I've listened to.

[guitarpicks]

[ attached is an image of a guqin he drew from memory. ] this thing?

YEAH? any chance they're here???

The zither given to me looks like this.

[ she'll also send an image of the floral zither here ]

I don't think so, I've never met anyone else I know in this world ... but if you could teach me more about rock n roll, I'd be happy to learn.

[guitarpicks]

not the same, huh.

oh. well, that's better than knowing they're here. [ eddie wishes that steve had made it out alive after all. ] i'll teach you, yeah! you'll be an expert on rock before you know it.

i don't have any tapes here but i can play some songs for you to see if you like it. [ not metal at first, of course. he does know other songs that ease people into it. ]

[ that's true. a part of her is relieved that no one else is here other than her, truth be told, even if it's a little lonely being by herself.

but hey, that's what making friends is for. ]

I would like that. Much preferable to the yelling of my rock friend.

Do you plan on performing in front of a crowd eventually, too?

[guitarpicks]

well... there won't be yelling this time.

that's the hope. what's not to like about a live show.

[unalign]

I agree. I feel like there's even more excitement when music is performed in front of people.
