Missing option: artist.

I think 'musician' fits me best of the two options.

Re: what are u?


Since there wasn't an option for neither, I went guitarist. (since I can't read or write music)

Re: what are u?


I went for musician because I play piano too and guitarist can imply just someone who picks up the instrument.

Re: what are u?


You certainly don't need to be able to read music to be a musician. Where did that presumption come from?

IT'S A JOKE ...... a stupid one at best but still... something I once heard. I couldn't care less about who can and can not read music, who thinks he or she is or isn't a musician, or a guitarist for that matter. WHATEVER YOU MAY CONSIDER YOURSELF TO BE JUST PLAY AND ENJOY IT! It's certainly not worth getting offended over.

Re: what are u?


more of a musician i think i would consider myself. I know how to read, know my theory, etc.. but i do play guitar only, so that would make me a guitarist. i'm confused.

Seems we crossed wires, I was actually referring to the post quoted below.
Sorry for the confusion. Yes, I know you were joking. And I completely agree.
