I play guitar and bass, somewhat casually. I don't play them as much as I should and I see them sittin beside eachother begging to be 'played with ;)' but I just neglect em and dont really play often.

I have a Fender Precision knockoff bass, and an Ibanez Arondite ADD120.

Anyone else? My uncles, and grandpa used to do little shows around the city

    I play guitar, piano, sing, write my own music. You can listen to some of my older stuff here: myspace.com/arielleippolito. I have a couple videos my dad took at my first show as well on youtube.com/ariellemippolito. My last show was in May...hoping for some more over the summer. Have started incorporating covers because I love singing other people's songs. I find people get bored when I play ONLY original music since they don't know it.

    I'm a pianist and vocalist! Sang harmonies for my step brothers band a few times with him but mostly use my talents with my praise band at my church!

    I play piano and a little guitar, and love to sing choral (classical) music.

    My brother plays guitar too, and I really wish we would jam more, we've basically only jammed to Man in the Box by Alice in Chains, and For whom the bell tolls, by metallica :P I need to up my game.

    Flute, Piano and Vocalist! Currently learning guitar on my own, but have to wait for it to be fixed (It's comb isn't the right size, so all the strings are nice and close to each other and impossible to play.) I also write my own music and lyrics. No recordings however.

    I went back and forth. Did choir all through school, including in college. I couldn't put down the blues though. I add it to any gig I play, even if it isn't blues.

    Yeh AJ, I've heard that learning blues is really good for some progress overall. Adds a certain substance, I really should take guitar more seriously. I have a few friends who play and it'd be kick *kitten* to be able to just rip out a few shows around the city if we actually got together and tried(and didnt suck *kitten* haha)

    Play for yourself or your friends like you're standing on a huge stage. It will help you polish when you're by yourself.

    Well I don't play guitar, bass or drums. But I do play piano, flute and piccolo plus I love to sing so I guess that counts for something!

    I play guitar. I recently got a schecter c-1 hellraiser and am really trying to find more time to play. Its tough though because all of the friends I have that play instruments are into way different music than me so I have nobody to jam with.

    I also recently started dipping my hands into some electronic music, messing around with FL studio, reason, and cubase.
