Garage Band whoo hoooo

 I now have my own Garage Band. 

 Meet my lead singer. HE HE HE... 

Nope, that is THIS VIDEO, on YouTube that I am using to learn how to play in my own band which is all IN MY IPAD!

While poking all the apps I saw this  and Poked it! 


I nearly expired from Joy, the piano came up and back in the distant day, I played a little by ear only, don't know a note.


The app has 6 or more pianos, including Baby Grand and electronic pianos. 
I played twinkle, twinkle and amazing grace and she'll be coming round the mountain. one finger only


6 different drums sets, and 2 instuments from middle east that i don't know what they are. I love drums, all drums, and if I hold down 2 fingers on one drum it plays 2 beats and slide my fingers side ways and it get  louder and changes. i have no clue what i am doing but it sure is fun
its a whole band in a tiny tablet


and the most fun of all it has every string instrument except NO HARP.
I played with the violins until Bob was about to pull his hair out.



and 6 different guitars. I can't seem to upload the mp4 music I made, blogger doesn't know about it I guess but am searching for info on how to do that.
I played for THREE Hours off and on. I would put it down and go back and get it.
The orange things above, each one is 4 notes and all the chords that go with them.
ECSTATIC IN FLORIDA.
I am hoping it will let me play without wi-fi, will check to see. I could play if we lose power/internet. 


It even has 6 fake bands that will play or sing.


Blogger will not allow upload of the recording. so far I think I found a way to let you hear my new song. I laid the iPad on the bed and used my cell phone to video record the sound. It may be loud, be careful

below is the sound of MadSnapper Madly Strumming Guitar Strings and I hope I did not accidently use someone's copyright song.....πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰

Fantastic. You like steel guitar then? When do we get banjo? (Better than 'garage' music where i come from.)

How cool is that. Years ago I had a keyboard that was fun to play with. I can't read music but I could figure things out by ear.

Impressed! I was telling Tom about this last night ... and wouldn't be surprised if an iPad doesn't appear in his Christmas stocking. He's got 2 (real) keyboards with all the bells and whistles, but that means he has to get up and walk in the music room.

Dang, that is super cool! Good strumming. I like drums too if done well. πŸ’™

Very nice! I have always wished that I could play the piano, but never really hadthe opportunity or the time. I suppose if I weren't so lazy I could attempt it now. :)

How fun!!! I have seen Garage Band on my laptop and never knew what it was or even opened it. Learn something new every day.

Pamela M. Steiner said...

This sounds like a lot of fun. I always wanted to learn to play the piano, and maybe the drums too. I may have to check this out when I have a quiet place away from listening ears. LOL. Thanks for the fun.

Brian's Home Blog said...

You sure were having some fun! Hey, I have 2 harps upstairs in my music room, I can fill in for you LOL!

DeniseinVA said...

Looks like you had a great time with this. Amazing what can be done and how many things we can play with.

Debby@Just Breathe said...

You never fail to impress me with all the things you play with to entertain yourself. I'm glad you enjoy doing things like this.

Rose said...

I just now remembered to listen to your instrumental...quite pretty I thought and would have liked to hear more!
