P.S. I sing in my church as well, so I guess my voice is an instrument, too0 -
Flute/piccolo and voice through half of college until I realized that when everyone was practicing, I was at the bars.
Quit. Pawned the flute and piccolo to buy a car so I could get to class. Bad idea.
Changed major to English. Excellent idea.
Fast forward.
Pawned wedding rings post divorce, spotted piccolo for $30 on pawn shop shelf, purchased piccolo, played Vivaldi like an angel for a minute and used the remaining $$$ from the wedding ring to take my girlfriends out to get hammered. Excellent idea.
I still sing in the shower. :drinker:0 -
I play guitar but I don't play as much as I used to0
-
I played the violin years ago. Would love to get back into it again.0

I actually own a recording studio so I guess you can say I "play" all of the "instruments" that make it up. In high school I was the bass player and lead singer for a punk rock band. We played music like Blink 182. In middle school I played the orchestra bass in the school band. Also learned how to play the chelo and violin during that time. After I got out of school I self taught myself how to play the piano.0

I play guitar. Probably couldn't tell by my pic lol. I am in a band right now, too actually. I love it0
-
I played clarinet, bass clarinet, oboe, e flat clarinet, flute, saxophone, & trumpet. I also TRIED to learn the guitar and banjo, but I was really bad at it. Always wanted to leard the harp and violin.0
-
Piano and violin, but I sing mainly.0
-
Violin, viola, cello...My boyfriend and I both love and played violin. It was one of our common interests that brought us together. I would love to learn to play piano but know that the expense of buying one to always practice is out of reach right now. Perhaps someday though.0

I played the saxophone in the school band. Dabbled with piano (never any good), piccolo, drums, clarinet, and a whole lot of percussion but I kinda quit it all when I could no longer play the sax because the fees were too high
atm I'm trying to teach myself guitar, I have an acoustic but I also have an electric I am restoring as a personal project. One day I plan to play a full song on it0 -

The piano, until I was 11 and got to learn Fur Elise. Then I stopped as I considered that the pinnacle of my piano career.
Now... ehum. Does Guitar Hero count?0 -
I played clarinet and still play in church and an alumni marching band. I used to play bassoon, bass clarinet, trumpet and bass drum for marching (for 1 season). I used to drum major (conduct a marching band), started off college as a music major but wound with a degree in Communications. I'm glad I still play, it is one of the greatest joys in my life.0

Piano for years and a few years of Sax0

Started playing guitar in Oct 12, something that I've always wanted to do. I have a Fender acoustic, Squier Strat and Epiphone Les Paul. Learning through instructional DVDs found online (very good series at guitarlessons.com) and playing Rocksmith on my PS3. Having a blast, wishing I would've started years ago!0
