Anybody else play an instrument?

[MadeleineG]

I didn't say it's impossible. Just difficult. I have trouble coordinating breathing with jumping around.

just being snarky... and for the record, I can't dance, either

Two or 3 beers (liquid courage) and I think I can dance.

I used to routinely dance on stage during gigs. Alcohol was certainly a motivating factor. 

[JordanBlue]

Drummer/singer 50 years.  Currently playing in a regularly working R&B band.

I play the electric guitar for 4 years now...

recently only I have an issue... japanese songs dont have tabs on the internet , so I have to learn everything by ear... pretty tough work haha

Ooh really? What bands or songs are you trying to play?

[Joan]

For me, as the dancing gets better the playing goes downhill

[Joan]

Yeah, the thing was heavy.and I was the tallest too, usually the centre of the tuba line in forms on the field.

It wasn't really my choice, mom had me do marching band as an activity to be more social. Honestly I didn't see what was social about band; I was there to play my horn.

The things they made us do, eh?

[Marieee]

Wow lots of guitarists here!

Been playing for too long and I like technical stuff but play a lot of pop-punk too. And I have a bass I use for ska stuff.

I don't know if I will ever hear "Trans" Siberian Orchestra the same way now. *giggles*

lolol

But when I was a teen, I was a veritable prodigy on the skin flute. 

Perhaps we should compare notes. 

[Sarah Louise]

I used to play the Cello and the Recorder, my spouse plays the Dulcimer.

[Constance]

I bought a plastic Yamaha recorder when I was in high school and tried to teach myself to play it. Unfortunately, I just didn't have the discipline to really pursue it. And I've always loved cellos, but have never studied the instrument.

I was a veritable prodigy on the skin flute.

I was wondering when someone would say that.

I used to play the Cello and the Recorder, my spouse plays the Dulcimer.

Yay for the dulcimer! We had one when I was growing up, but it only had two strings and one was broken. It was never fixed. I would try to strum it anyway, but needless to say I won't be the first trans professional dulcimer player!

Ukulele? My fingers are too big for those. And the skin flute...is that free style or classical?

I always seemed to have problems with the strum patterns.

I used to play the Cello and the Recorder, my spouse plays the Dulcimer.

the Appalachian dulcimer or the hammered dulcimer?

[Brandon]

I play Trumpet, Violin, Piano, Drums, Alittle bit of Guitar and I'm currently wanting to learn how to play the Saxaphone

I have always loved the cello and I really wanted to learn how to play. That slightly mournful tone it produces always did it for me. I even dates a cellist back in HS

I play Trumpet, Violin, Piano, Drums, Alittle bit of Guitar and I'm currently wanting to learn how to play the Saxaphone

That, Brandon, is an impressive list

[Ltl89]

I used to play the trumpet in school which I hated.  As far as self teaching, I've learned a little bit of the piano and attempted briefly (but failed) to learn to play the viola.  I've always wanted to go back to a string instrument and learn to play.  I love classical music, so it would be fun.

However, the instrument that I play nowadays is the guitar (electric and classical).  Though I must confess, I've been a bit lazy as of late.  At the moment, I'm a bit frustrated with trying to master the "chaconne", so I've been going back to electric while I'm still angry at Bach, lol.  Still, there is something about classical guitar that moves me more than any other music. Well, one day I'll be a lesser segovia, lol.  In any case, I have improvement to make on the electric, so my time is still being invested wisely. 

[jojoglowe]
