In the beginning, I decided I wanted to learn to play piano and write songs. So I got some MIDI controllers for Garage Band and some recording equipment and set to work. I learned some chords, played some covers, and tried to write some original songs. Then I got a fancy Rhodes Mk1 Electric piano because I liked the sound and I played some covers on it and tried to write some original songs. I realized that carting that beast around was going to be a pain, so I sold that and got a more portable Nord Electro 2. Again, covers were played and maybe some original songs were written down. I never got to the level that I wanted to achieve, however, so I eventually sold everything and let that dream go.
