    I melt faces jamming on the Rock Kazoo!

    Used to play pro, but now I'm just leisure.

    I used to play the piano, but I am best at playing a CD! :laugh:

    I was always more into sports than music, much to my mother's disappointment.

    I used to play the violin and clarinet in elementary school haha! I switched to oboe for half a year, but the instrument that I rented was broke, so when it was the oboe solo (because apparently not many people liked the oboe back in junior high, but every composure looooooved it, I was the only oboist in band) I'd always squeak. After that I dropped out of the music industry completely save for singing in the car or tapping the table like a drum with my hands when I'm drunk.

    I played the flute in school band, made honors band & state. (nerd)
    for fun I would play my friend's alto sax & clarinet. if they were absent from school I would take their instrument and sit in their seat. drove my band director crazy. (again nerd)
    I taught myself to play piano and organ.
    for mother's day this year, my kids & husband bought me a Fender guitar & lessons. I haven't taken any lessons yet, but I need to soon. I pick it up and play with it, but just no "songs" yet.

    I started learning the piano when I was 10. When I was 12 I wanted to learn to play Dueling Banjos, so I saved up my allowance and bought a banjo. My mom bought me a new banjo for my 40th birthday. She said she thought I was at my happiest when I was playing that. I love my mom.

    I want to learn cello! Alejandro Escovedo's celloist is awesome and makes me wanna play every time I see him. My son bought a bass off his friend, but hasn't touched it, so I think I might have to teach myself to play it. Just so it doesn't sit around gathering dust. :smile:
