Musicians or non musicians

[Yesspaz]

Hello Andyyyy. I think there're are a lot of "musicians" in this world that are musicians only because a certain artist or composition inspired them to pick up an instrument. I'm in this group. I play bass because I always wanted to be in a rock band, and my musician heroes are Chris Squire, John Entwistle, Paul McCartney, Ross Valory, and many others. But ultimately I'd have to say I'm not really a musician because of my total lack of skill. Rather, I don't have the skill to play the type of music I want to play (I'm more than adequate to play 90% of the stuff you hear on your local classic rock station).
