Basketball Brady Manek Performs Classic Rock In Bathroom
It's not unusual for basketball players to have hobbies outside of basketball, but who would have thought that Brady Manek, the forward for the Oklahoma Sooners, would have a hidden talent for playing classic rock on the guitar in the bathroom? It's a scene straight out of a coming-of-age movie, but this is the real deal.
How it all started
Manek has been playing basketball for most of his life, but his passion for music started when he was just a kid. His father was a musician, and Manek grew up surrounded by guitars and music. He started playing the guitar when he was just 11 years old, and he hasn't stopped since.
It wasn't until he was in college that he started playing in the bathroom. The bathroom in the Oklahoma Sooners' locker room has great acoustics, and Manek found himself playing his guitar there more and more often. It became a way for him to relax and unwind after a tough game or practice.
The songs
Manek's taste in music is firmly rooted in classic rock. His repertoire includes songs by some of the biggest names in rock history, like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and AC/DC. He's even been known to play some classic blues tunes as well.
One of his favorite songs to play in the bathroom is "Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin. He loves the song's intricate guitar parts, and he says that the bathroom's acoustics make it sound even better.
The reaction
Manek's bathroom performances have become something of a legend among his teammates and the coaching staff. They've all heard him play, and they can't get enough of it.
But Manek's music isn't just limited to the bathroom. He's performed live on campus a few times, and the response has been overwhelming. Fans love seeing their favorite basketball player rock out on stage, and Manek loves the opportunity to showcase his other passion.
The future
Manek is still focused on basketball, but he's also excited to see where his music takes him. He's not sure if he wants to pursue music professionally, but he knows that it will always be a big part of his life.
For now, he's content to keep playing in the bathroom and performing live when he can. Who knows? Maybe one day we'll see Brady Manek playing guitar on a big stage, just like his heroes from classic rock history.
