Okay. i guess i'm just not cut out to be a musician then
If you can't actually play any instruments I don't see why you'd think you were.

And I don't mean take lessons or study the instrument in books (although those are great ideas) just find a cheap-as-free Wal Mart guitar or similar and play it until it falls apart. Get a metronome too. I'm not going to say that it will be overnight (it won't) but if you do this you will see an improvement in your music that you possibly never anticipated. Clearly you're familiar enough with the program to make music, now become familiar enough with music to make GOOD music.

Last night I spent an hour on the porch jamming on bass. My porch faces a pretty broad slab of concrete canyon and the noise carries very well, so I had a bit of fun playing around with my tuning (and my beloved Boss Distortion Pedal). Nobody screamed 'SHUT THE FUCK UP' which was literally my only fear. I think some people from the apartment building two doors down actually came out to listen for a bit. I'm planning on making it a regular thing.
