Week 2 Question

What is the first song you learned to play on guitar (or instrument)? Best answer wins a signed “Come of Age” CD.

Jesus of Suburbia by Green Day! :D
Closely followed by American Jesus by Bad Religion

Alkaline Trio's 'Radio'. Quite easily still one of the most pivotal punk songs. I actually sang it to my campers this summer and they went fucking crazy for it. It really embodies the spirit of punk rock and that riff is to die for.

The first song that I learned to play on guitar (left handed with guitar upside down) was "Come As You Are" by Nirvana.

First song I learned on guitar was MxPx's "Doing Time" ...my friend and I performed it at our 5th grade talent show. Gangster as fuck, I know.

"Smoke on the Water," because really, what are guitars for?

The Beverly hills cop theme on piano. Because bitches can't resist Eddie murphs.

"That Thing You Do" ( the title track from the movie) on the drums.. one of the best drum intros ever? i think so!

Turning Japanese by The Vapors. I learned it by ear after I got the first few notes down.

dammit by blink (guitar) super fast like the live album :D

I Miss You - Blink 182, its easy now but back then it took me weeks to play it at only half speed

The first song I learned to play on guitar was I Will Follow You Into the Dark by Death Cab for Cutie. Learned it in 8th grade when my dad got me guitar lessons for my birthday and it's still one of my favorite songs to play.

The first song I learned how to play was "hot cross buns" on the violin. My first, first song was "America the Beautiful" on the recorder but that shit doesn't count.

The first song I learned on my guitar in 8th grade was "Perfect" by Simple Plan. I was so bad. So bad. It would take me days to learn something I can do in seconds now. lol but I still loved trying.
