Music Improvisation Drown troubles in alcoholAlthough you could get away with merely soothing your soul with some spirits to lighten the mood it just sounds a lot better to drown your troubles in alcohol. So show off your self destructive side like there's no tomorrow.

Basic String Instruments & Music Improvisation Speak of the Painful PastWe've all got a troubled past. Things that have scarred our inner souls so much that it's a miracle we've survived sometimes.

Skills:
Professional Showmanship & Audience Awareness Tell the story of The BluesThe audience really should know a bit about the people who paved the way for what we now know as blues like Robert Johnson or Son House. It's up to you to teach them.
