I've had a similar experience being around other musicians. They all seem to be more than willing to discuss music with fellow musicians. At the open mic we go to regularly, I'll be sure to complement somebody who I thought sounded really good. It will inevitably turn into a conversation. I've NEVER been one to walk up to a stranger and initiate a conversation.
Pretty cool stuff.
Yeah, I did pretty much the same thing at some open-air gigs back in August, where three local bands were playing (although I left after the first band had played their first song, then came back in time for the second band). The second band kicked ass, the third band could have been cool too, but their sound was too muddy and the guitar didn't cut through. But I made sure to get ad close to the second and third band that night too, and had a little talk with them (the second band only became much more awesome after I found out where and when they rehearse). Always cool to hang out with fellow musicians :cool: And then there was the other time back in August, where I met and talked to the best two guitarists in Denmark... And befriended them too :D
I wonder if I'll get the chance to do the same when Pretty Maids comes to my town and plays at that small venue? That would certainly be awesome.
