What instruments do/did you play?

[Edwards1984]

there are easier ways to play the bag pipes.
obtain a cat
hold it upside down
pull the lags apart

I think you're confusing bagpipes with Yoko Ono.

guitar, banjo, bass

Today I feel musically blessed. I got to play/practice the piano and drums at my church. Then when I came home I played the guitar. This hasn't happened in a while where I got to play all 3 of my favorite instruments in one day, so I feel it has been a blessing indeed.

i played piano pretty much all my life. picked up guitar when i was in high school. now, i am trying to learn harmonica

 

[mina]

I can play the piano and the flute. I tried to teach myself the violin for like 6 months but it was a fail. But maybe I can take lessons now.

YouTube - Red Hot Chilli Pipers-Thunderstruck on bagpipe

Bagpipes are awesome, far more awesome than cat squeals.

I played the recorder in elementary school and then threw it away just like everyone else. I also played a mean xylophone too.

I still have my old recorder from elementary school. What's scary is that I remember how to play a few songs on it. In fact, I just found one of them on YouTube.

YouTube - Peter Warlock - Capriol Suite - Tordion 3/6

I dont play anything. When I was in 5th grade I tried playing the violin but it only lasted 6 weeks. I got a harmonica a couple years ago but have not spent enough time practicing.

 

[waves16]

I play the alto and tenor sax, 9 years! I love it
I also play flute, trumpet, and clarinet, but not as well.

I have my dad's guitar, and I'm trying to teach myself how to play, I know 5 or 6 chords, but it's going pretty slow haha

I used to play the piano - for about 6/7/8 years. I haven't for ages though... I do miss it. But instead I sing now. A voice is a lot lighter to carry around than a keyboard! Hehehe.

 

[Steffenfield]

I can play pots and pans.

Someone invite me over and I will romance you with my musical gift to the world.

I'll need to pick up some salad tongs first.

Lol - I'll provide back up on the spoons... But first I should learn how to play them... ~grins~

 

[welshman]

I could play "Jesus Loves Me"...well almost...on the piano :o

I am soooooo not musically talented it's untrue

 

[Mydnyte]

I played the tuba/sousaphone in high school

I bought both a bass and an electric guitar a few years back but haven't done much with them. I'm thinking I'm gonna get the bass out and give it another try soon.

 

[EyesOfKohl]

Guitar, but I haven't done alot with it lately :/

 

[MehTeh]

Oh nice thread necro. I missed this one the first time around.

Some people think I can sing. I disagree.
I did learn the recorder in primary school. All Australian kids did back then.
I picked up the guitar in year 10 at school... but skating, rugby, reading all got in the way of practising. I would like to learn though, and the piano.

I was talking to my Pa on the weekend, he's nearly 81 and plays the organ. We were talking about playing instruments as he's selling one of his organs. He has 2, a yamaha and a hammond, a yamaha keyboard, obviously knows how to play the piano but doesn't have one, he doesn't like it enough. He learnt how to play the accordion about 10 years ago and recently bought a new one, has 6 harmonicas including a 1 1/2 inch long one that he plays for laughs, he also plays a melodyhorn and gave me a demo and is learning the guitar and wants to learn how to play the violin.

The musical talent was clearly passed down to my uncle, not my dad.

I used to play a bunch of different instruments. Weird part is, I could pick up one instrument and play it, using the sheet music of another. My band teacher thought I was weird that I never used the proper sheet music.

Flute, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, euphonium (my favorite).

I also used to play worship for my youth group in high school. So add guitar to that list.

I've always wanted to learn piano and cello.

 

[Weak&Loved]

I've been playing guitar for over a year now. I would love to get more lessons on it though. I enjoy singing more though.

I played the tenor sax in middle and high school. I was pretty decent. When I went to college I got a special travel case for it and everything, and brought it back and forth for a while, but I was always too embarrassed to play in the dorms so I finally just left it at home. :\ I play along with my dad (he plays guitar) when I go back, but I'm suuuuper rusty haha.

I also briefly tried to learn guitar at my dad's suggestion, but it's incredibly difficult!! I gave up.
