Drums, pretty decent. (I just need a new set)

Guitar, just a little bit (strumming for the most part, a few chords)

I'd love to learn piano.

bundy 04-19-2003 02:44 PM

i played Viola and Violin as well when i was younger. and they got me places.

but i only play the piano atm.

wish i could play really great jazz piano!

a1t3r3g0 04-19-2003 06:17 PM

Ya know, I'd really like to be able to play anything... guitar, piano, sax, drums.. hmm maybe I'll set some free time aside this summer.. who am I kidding, I won't have any :(

phoenix1002 04-19-2003 06:29 PM

I play flute (have played for 10+ years now I think), piccolo (evil little instrument), and i'm learning the didgeridoo. I want to learn how to play a guitar, but just don't have the time. Maybe over the summer I'll steal my dad's. ;)

i8one2 04-19-2003 06:33 PM

a yamaha dj2 midi keyboard

oldbob 04-19-2003 06:41 PM

I played piano for most of my childhood, but that was awhile ago. I've been playing bass lately, and i'm looking to learn cello or another (small) fretless instrument. and harmonica.

I appreciate the confidence. I can't seem to make the jump from "Clemintine" and assorted Christmas carols to anything worthwhile... I need to dig around and find a lesson somewhere. Maybe after all my other projects!

vermin 04-19-2003 10:21 PM

I play a yellow Fender strat, a black Hohner copy of a steinberger, a small-bodied Goya six string acoustic, and an Epiphone 12 string acoustic.
I also have a drum machine that I can't program worth shit, and a four track recorder on which I've recorded 6 or 7 original songs. But they suck. All instrumentals 'cause I sing terribly.

Oh, yeah, I wish I could play piano (listen to Lynyrd Synyrd's They Call Me The Breeze, THAT style of piano).

zmbabwe 04-19-2003 10:37 PM

I play cello, I bought a guitar on friday, I don't know how far I'll pursue that one. I'd really love to play drums.

BlueBongo 04-19-2003 11:19 PM

I play the trumpet.... and I wouldn't mind learning the bass guitar :)

04-19-2003 11:22 PM

I’ve played guitar for 15 years. There was a period of 5 years I was in the military that I forth most part, put it down. I started out playing classical, and then I heard Yngwie which motivated me to practice scales and arpeggios flat picking. In the last 3 years I only pick up my guitar here and there: Fender Strat. I took a semester of piano in college and found it pretty difficult. I really wished I would have picked up trumpet, I’d be a stud with the ladies by now.

holtmate 04-19-2003 11:52 PM

I played saxophone for about 10 years, alto, tenor, and baritone. I stopped recently, just got lazy, I guess.

One instrument I would like to learn would be bass guitar. I think it would just be fun.

Xixox 04-20-2003 01:12 AM

I played trumpet in high school. I was good at reading music, but awful at improv.

I wish I could sit down at a piano and just hammer out something by Philip Glass or George Winston. My problem is that I'm too shy about playing. If anyone is within earshot, I can't even practice. Can't even do chopsticks with an audience. Someday I'll get a keyboard so I can just throw on headphones & play to myself.

snowy 04-20-2003 02:04 AM

I can sing and read music, but that's about it. At one time or another I've tried my hand at guitar, piano and the clarinet. But none of them worked out, so I'm still stuck singing. I'd love to be able to play the piano, but unfortunately my hands are too small. If they could make a smaller piano with littler keys, then maybe I'd be in luck :)

apetaster 04-20-2003 04:11 AM

Used to play guitar. Have a 'Fender Stratocaster with a whammy bar' in the closet collecting dust. The strings are probably rusty.
When I have kids I'll take it out of the closet and play them lullabies of Megadeth.

phunktastic 04-20-2003 04:19 AM

I can sorta play guitar (self taught, www.wholenote.com ) ,, and I got a banjo for christmas awhile back. Never learned how to play it though.

My goals are to learn to play the banjo and jazz piano.

ratbastid 04-20-2003 04:34 AM

I currently play guitar and jazz piano.

I HAVE played trumpet, brass baritone, bass, drums, and french horn.

frozenstellar 04-20-2003 06:50 AM

i currently play acoustic guitar and bass.

wish i could play the violin and piano, beautitul instruments

ARTelevision 04-20-2003 10:02 AM

keyboards.
Have a roomful of vintage synths, gear, and some recent stuff.

GuttersnipeXL 04-20-2003 10:14 AM

I play the guitar and naturally wish that I was better at it...practice makes perfect...I would love to be able to tear it up on a clavinet...trouble is finding an original that won't break my bank account.

Pooface 04-20-2003 11:59 AM

Ibanez RX series for me. I can of course also play BASS. I play decent drums to. I eant to learn the piano and bagpipes.

John Henry 04-20-2003 12:05 PM

I play guitar. I have an Aria Pro II. I have a balalaika too, but as far as I can work out, even though it looks a bit like a guitar or a lute, it's not for making music.

degrawj 04-20-2003 05:58 PM

i play violin, viola, cello, bass, piano, guitar, oboe, bassoon, and a little trumpet. i wish i could play every instrument.

greytone 04-20-2003 06:02 PM

I don't really have any musical talent, and the only thing I play is the CD disc changer. If I did play something it would probably be the kettle drums. I would just sit and listen to the rest of the orchestra and then when it came time for the crescendo, it would be my time to pipe in with my two cents.

Atropos4 04-20-2003 06:54 PM

i play guitar ....not very often and not very great
i used to play the flute and wish i still did...i only quit cuz the teacher was a #%$!@ i was going to be first chair too.(for those of you that know what that means) :)
i would like to learn to play the harp ....

Frosstbyte 04-20-2003 07:04 PM

Piano's my deal. I've played for about 12 years. My parents have the piano in their basement because I don't have anywhere to store it right now, which sucks.

I had a brief stint with the cello, but that really didn't stick for me. Had to prioritize and the piano won out.

I'd like to play the guitar. I often mess around with my roommate's, but I'm just not any good at it.

AlphaFox830 04-20-2003 07:52 PM

Hi all,

I play trombone and trumpet, but im a clozet drummer actually.


Does anoyne have any advice for starting drummers?

mystmarimatt 04-20-2003 08:05 PM

i sing and read music, and play a bit of piano, but i wish i could play guitar. and bagpipes. bagpipes rock.

hiredgun 04-20-2003 08:24 PM

I play.... my voice.

I wanna learn guitar though, I've messed around before and one of my bandmates promised to teach me once we're done recording for a while.

Edit: Oh, and I play the trombone. Or know how, at least, though I forgot to mention it because I don't play nowadays (no need for a trombone in a rock band...)

bass guitar, playing for a few years.

Cynthetiq 05-16-2003 07:50 AM

i played the trumpet and piano when I was in HS.

was in band class with Dave Navarro (trumpet) and Steve Perkins (drums)

Prophecy 05-16-2003 08:03 AM

I haven't had the chance to pratice or play anything lately, but i can play the Violin, Sax, piano, a little organ and some guitar by tab

Minx 05-16-2003 09:00 AM

I took piano lessons for years as a kid then self-taught myself after that. I can play okay but don't have the time to practice to get better. Into the classical stuff mostly and used to be able to play Moonlight Sonata from memory but not now! I have the most beautiful antique upright baby grand (an old player piano and I still have rolls for it!)...it's been in my family for generations. I would like to learn to play the cello - it is such a beautiful instrument (Yo Yo Mah is a MASTER on it) and wish I could play classical guitar.

warrrreagl 05-16-2003 10:06 AM

Rhythm guitar, bass guitar, banjo, dulcimer, harmonica, piano, flute, drums, saxophones, trumpet, trombone, oboe, violin, viola, cello, bass, and French Horn.

Out of all that, I can not coax even the slightest sound from a clarinet. Go figure.

mxyzptlk 05-16-2003 10:16 AM

Played the clarinet and piano many moons ago.

Right now I have a burning desire to buy and learn to play the fiddle. Must be that "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" Movie CD.

Antihero 05-16-2003 10:27 AM

I play bass guitar and (try to) sing :)

krwlz 05-16-2003 05:07 PM

i got the trumpet goin here, im no louie but its all good

Leander 05-16-2003 07:16 PM

I'm kind of like a jack of all trades master of none. I played alto, soprano and tenor sax for about 15 years. Once I left school I pawned the saxes. It doesn't help to smoke.
I also play guitar, mandolin, dulcimer and banjo; all just for fun. My baby is a Gibson RD Artist from 1977. Also had to play recorder for a college theory class, and I'm still trying to figure out why.
I would love to play drums. So much coordination. So much anger, so little time.
