So what do you play? (music wise)
And what kind of guitar do you have?

moabash

SaQiB, I think its rude to show up at someone's door without an invitation, no?
Nouman, i play Alternate Rock and Indie Rock music mostly and i have a YAMAHA acoustic guitar

what kind of music do you play?

funkydelicguy

I just sit and fool around with my guitar, and try to entertain myself. Sounds I make are inspired by everything from Alt. Rock / Heavy Metal to Horn players like Miles Davis or John Coltrane.

I have a cheap Pluto Acoustic and an Ibanez RG320 that I plug into a Roland Microcube.

Hmmm if I was in that situation, playing guitar is not the only thing we would practice....lol :dumbom:

I think in western compounds you can try. You can rent venues like the ones with pools (don't know the exact term). If we can only push the jamming session we planned before, but the same problem comes out.

Good luck.

We'd still need someone who lives at a western compound to sponsor us to play there or at their place. I dont think we'd need a full equipment installed since its going to start as discovering what kind of music genre everyone plays and their way of playing.
Any suggestions?

So I'm moving to KKESH soon and was planning on bringing my guitar with me. Will I be able to practice in my apartment?

moabash

Of course you will be.. it's your apartment! The question is can you receive guests who would want to jam with you :) ?

narfsnonsense

Thanks! Trust me I just learning so no where close to jammin!

moabash

It's not like I'm the best out there.. Consider it a couple of ok guitar playing people having a nice time :)
