		<description>&lt;i&gt;I am nowhere near as in-practice as I was in college&lt;/i&gt;
Probably true for many of us - especially those who didn&#039;t pursue a career in music.

&lt;i&gt;not at all a talented guitar player&lt;/i&gt;
I still think it&#039;s cool that you play.  I took lessons when I was a wee wobbler, but had the willingness-to-learn embarrassed out of me pretty early on.

&lt;i&gt;And yet he still can’t hit all the notes&lt;/i&gt;
Which just goes to show you that it&#039;s not all about ONE thing when it comes to music.

If you play some of his stuff on the piano - it&#039;s got a real ragtime feel, which I found both surprising and interesting (but maybe that&#039;s just me).

I still say he made the best version of Alice In Wonderland with his &quot;Don&#039;t Come Around Here No More&quot; video.

&lt;i&gt;Qui?&lt;/i&gt;
Old show - &quot;Forever Knight&quot; - vampire&#039;s name was Vachon, he had long hair and an electric guitar.  He also lived ironically, in a church (and, no, there&#039;s shouldn&#039;t be a comma after &lt;i&gt;lived&lt;/i&gt; )</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Can you sing as well?&lt;/i&gt;

Yes, a baritone -- although I am nowhere near as in-practice as I was in college.

But please note for the record that I am &lt;i&gt;not at all&lt;/i&gt; a talented guitar player, and only slightly better as a songwriter and vocalist.

&lt;i&gt;I have a 4 octave range, which I’m told is uncommon&lt;/i&gt;

Yes it is.  Bravo.

&lt;i&gt;My favorite vampire owns one&lt;/i&gt;

Qui?

&lt;i&gt;Tom Petty tunes, which, sadly, don’t have much range to them&lt;/i&gt;

And yet he &lt;b&gt;still&lt;/b&gt; can&#039;t hit all the notes!  &lt;/troll&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;The Gibson Les Paul guitar is by a near-infinite margin my favorite electric guitar.&lt;/i&gt;
Mine, too (well, tied for second anyway).  My favorite vampire owns one - in black, naturally.

Sorry yours got stolen - people totally suck!  I&#039;ve always thought of buying one, even though I don&#039;t play - very poser of me, yeah?  I tend to be the air drummer in the band anyway, but at least I actually own a pair of drumsticks - yeah, I know, again with the poser.

It&#039;s so cool that you play, though!  Can you sing as well?  I used to take singing lessons - I have a 4 octave range, which I&#039;m told is uncommon - though, I doubt I could hit A above High C with the allergies I&#039;ve been having lately.   My teacher always wanted me to sing Italian Operas, but I was really only interested in singing Tom Petty tunes, which, sadly, don&#039;t have much range to them.  Oh well, doesn&#039;t matter - the stagefrightness rules all anyway.
