Instruments you have played or would like to learn how to play?

I have played Piano, Clarinet, and Saxophone. I didn't really like Clarinet and Saxophone too much, but I gave it a try.

Piano was the one I palyed the most and personally I like that one. Not really as sensitive as woodwind instruments are (I didn't like how often I'd blow too hard or crack the reed and wind up squeaking in the middle of a song) and it's very good in Jazz.


But I'd like to play Marimba. It always sounded to be a cool instrument, albeit not really something you can carry around like Clarinet and Saxophone.

I don't play anything. But I would like to maybe learn piano sometime, or maybe some kind of brass instrument. Not guitar, too common amongst white kids my age.

I used to play piano, but stopped and lost most of it - I still play chords, but that's about it.

I do play some guitar, but not very well. I mostly just sing.

Can play piano/keyboard and bass guitar pretty well. Have played drums, harmonica and accoustic guitar with reasonable success, and some electric guitar. Also, recorder and flute many years ago, and it was pretty suck. XD

Saxophone for years when I was younger. Liked it a lot and still do..whip it out from time to time. I kind of always wanted to learn to play guitar but was always too lazy to learn.

My sister played piano and french horn really well, so I got roped into piano lessons and the school band (goddamn oboe) as well. Hated it all.

Yeah, Ian Anderson is pretty much the reason why I would ever try to pick up a flute.
