GUEST,Patrick Costello,
you said:

"My advice would be to pick up an instrument (a guitar, banjo, piano- the blues has been played on just about everything. For all I know there is some guy howling away at blues bassoon somewhere) and get out into your community. The blues is everywhere. It's a living art form and as such there is going to be people to play with and learn from in your neck of the woods."

Sorry, it may be sacriledge to write this here, but actually I have no desire to learn an instrument in this life {maybe during my next incarnation}.

My "instrument" is my voice...I am a Storyteller and a public speaker. I also write. And I also love to LISTEN to music. And I love to sing also, but NOBODY-I repeat- NOBODY would ever pay to hear me sing...I sing just for the pleasure of doing so-at home, or in public settings like church along with other people...

But even if I don't play an instrument, I can still appreciate Blues and other music forms, can't I?

I believe so.
