Learning to play guitar is all about two things: Practice, and playing with other people. And The Chicago Guitarists Meet-up can help do that. Let's create a fun, laid back atmosphere where we can hang out, play some songs and learn new techniques, and meet other people with the same interest. All ages and skill levels are welcome. Thanks and lets have some fun!

Hello. I'm a guitar player who is not ready to 'play out' at this point as I am a bit rusty/have not picked up the instrument regularly in a while. I very much want to get back to playing/creating again, however. I am not a songwriter, not yet anyway, and I am not looking for perfect players, as the purpose here is to have fun, be creative, laugh, let go of our egos, ( as much as is humanly possible anyway). All aspects of musicianship are welcome: songwriters, singers, yes, even tamborine playe …

The idea is to get a few Morrissey fans together, and have a good time doing things like (but not limited to) singing Morrissey and Smiths songs. We'll have at least one guitar player, all other instruments are welcome. Most of all, singers of all kinds are welcome! It's like live karaoke, only with songs by the best song writer and vocalist of our lifetimes! Any other ideas for this meetup are welcome!
Music made with electronics is what we're about. Techno, Electro, House, Tech-House, Dubstep, IDM, Minimal Techno, Glitch-Hop, Chiptune / 8-Bit, Ambient, Indie-Tronica, Future Disco, and the like... We love music that doesn't rely on traditional musical instruments like Guitars, Drum Kits, Charismatic Vocalists to be relevant. Our musical past was born from music created through advancements in tools, but that only gives the humans who make it more tools to work with.
