How many bands can brag they have a bombardaphone?

Isn't that the one that plays explosives?

I wish

Looks something like this

There's one at the National Music Museum

Which is in Vermillion SD for some reason?

That's pretty lit lol

Always wanted to play a wind instrument, but way too spastic, can never get the breathing right...

I'm probably taking ||saxophone|| courses this autumn.

knights used to have required humanities as part of their education

including dance and art and poetry or whatever

artistic expression is in general a human trait

no one starts drawing

they stop as they grow up

except in trad societies

where people retain creative outlets and make their place worth living in

gtfo with your puritan nonsense

Im still searching for a way to express creativity that isnt drawing or painting. its what i used to do but it no longer brings me any kind of joy

maybe sculpting or woodworking is where its at

Woodworking is really comfy.

Woodworking is peak man expression. Making things out of wood is useful even if you don't make useful things, because if you work with wood you have the ability to.

Writing isn't bad because writing well is of extreme use, but painting is woman tier unless you're good, dance is fag tier unless you're single and wooing women with it, and performing arts are always and will always be the biggest gay.

my grandfather was a crazy carpenter

this nigga built a 1700s wagon from hand

I have automatic respect for anyone who can work with their hands and make something nice. Any luck I'm going to try to learn myself soon tbh

I can't make shit, I'm very lacking in common skills

my dad made furniture, in fact alot of the stuff i use he made

pretty epic

what if i use woodworking to carve flowers and cute figurines

is it still manly

hmmm

i would say yes

For sure, because it's a manly skill, ans delicate work is a mark of high proficiency. Flowers aren't just for women, men just need wear them more sparingly. Growing flowers is in itself a useful skill, specialized agriculture if you're talking technical skills

fixing up stuff is always a plus. plumbing, automotives, wiring, etc

what would i need to make for you to not consider it manly

because i'd say woodworking is for both sexes

Yeah

Woodworking as a trade is manly

Woodworking small figurines is still a bit manly, but I wouldn't object to women doing it
