Just out of random curiosity. I'm wondering how many people here play instruments (of the musical persuasion).

I myself play piano, flute, guitar and bass. ... and basically anything I can get my hands on. I'm just hoping that I'm not the only dorky musical kid here....

I play guitar in a band. I can also play bass, a bit of piano, a bit of drums. And my wiener, when the time is right.

I play drums and a little guitar on the side. I try to play piano, but all I can do is replicate. I love music, though, and I love replicating.

I play bass, piano, synthasizer(sp), guitar... and my lap. I can always drum on my lap when I don't have any of the before mentioned.

Mostly Guitar and piano, with a bit of bass and a bit of mandolin.

I really want to get one of those eastern sounding wind instruments used on the opening of "the Last Tempatation of Christ".

I play guitar, piano, recorder, thats right, the one you got in 4th grade. I'm going to pick up a bass soon, I hope. Aside from banging on random objects to make noise, which is all music really is anyway, I'm getting purty good on the jaw harp. Boo yah, bitch ass.

I have failed to learn how to play the trumpet, keyboard, recorder and trombone. I can play the first ten seconds of the mission impossible theme on the trombone (1,1,3,1 - 1,1,3,2 easiest thing to remember ever) and that's about it, I suck at all brass's because my lips are freakin huge, watching me play the trumpet must have been painful to watch.

Jazz Piano and Boiling water for that dronology effect. I found that playin an instrument wasted really works because it loosens up the muscles and relaxes your fingers and you just go with the atmosphere and flow.

[B]Way to go Banjo players! The world needs more banjo. Can you do the banjo's response in the Banjo vs Guitar ditty? [/B][/QUOTE]

You mean dueling banjos, or that classic scene in deliverance? yes. But its damn near impossible to find someone who can play the guitar accompaniment. I picked up the banjo about a year or so ago because someone gave me one and i thought to myself I be i will be the only banjo player alive that reads Plato for fun.

Earl Scruggs is a fucking pimp and so is Steve Martin.
