Accordian! Its finally arrived! Its waiting at mossopes mothers house. I have an accordian! Its only a small one, only 8 bass keys, but we will hopefully upgrade at some point. one question though. how the f**k do you play and accordian?
A Primer for Beginners Get an accordion. The cheaper the better because they all sound the same. Do not tell anyone what you have done - it will only cause them to worry. They will find out soon enough. Take the accordion out of the case and strap it on. It is better if the accordion rests on your chest instead of your back but, for the first few weeks, it doesn't really make that much difference. For sounds to be produced, three things must happen: The bellows must be moving in or out. One or more of the keys or buttons must be pressed. All potential weapons within a one mile radius must be collected and secured. The third is the most important: The buttons on the left side are chord buttons. The "C" button has a dimple or nipple so you can find it without looking. (This is a safety feature. Before it was invented, thousands of accordion players suffered painful and sometimes disabeling injuries - much to the delight of the general public). Never use more than three buttons. "Professional" accordionists appear to be using lots of buttons but they are acutally just desperately trying to find the damned "C". "Professional" means they have learned to smile while they do it. Play the black and white keys. The high notes are at the bottom and the low notes are at the top. (That arrangement isn't supposed to make any sense. Accept it.) Note: If you find the high notes at the top and the low notes at the bottom, you have either put the accordion on upside down or you have tried to repair it yourself. If the former, turn the accordion over. If the latter, pack your accordion up with thousands and thousands of euros and mail it far away for a long, long time. Continue playing until someone begs you to stop or threatens your life, whichever comes first. Put the accordion back in its case. Order an accordion t-shirt and wear it to the fleadh
lol. mint. we live in a terraced house, walls are very thin. But they have been torturing us with cheesy dance for weeks now. they deserve to hear us practice They dont seem to like irish folk music like, lot of banging when we play it at high volumes at the weekend they dont seem to like punk or ska either, so we cant really win
