Actually, I was wrong, it was sheet metal worker. Tony Iommi from Black Sabbath. They weren't an art school band like most of the rest of the 60's lot; proper working class types them.
There is probably a welder cum rockstar out there though....
Weeeeell actually...
not so much a rock star as he went his own way whilst partner Gerry Rafferty went on to Stealers Wheel and 70's rock stardom but Billy Connelly used to be a welder in the shipyards of Govan, Glasgow before hitting minor success with Gerry Rafferty and the Humblebums.
Now he is a comedic legend, award winning actor and bon vivant. Not bad for a welder and reservist paratrooper.
Anyway, I tend to agree that to maintain a skill level of 3 or 4 takes practice but how about nominating one skill to be a "natural talent" in which your level cannot deteriorate.
Anyway, for what it's worth I enjoy MGT even if it isn't my Traveller brand of choice (MT still has that honour). It plays quite nicely thank you despite some errors.
