We all like playing music, right? Music is great. Does anyone here play music? And if you do, is it a hobby, or your career? Have you ever performed? Is there any instrument in particular you've always wanted to play, but never have?

As for me, I play guitar, but only has a hobby. I've never performed, and I've always wanted to play an accordina ever since I saw Richard Galliano play one.

Now you!

I can play simple bass lines here and there. By no means do I consider myself a musician. Older members may remember the Polo Ponys, for example.

Exactly.

I play a couple of instruments, some better than others. There's some videos on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIFXFDwelnU) of me playing instruments.

I took piano lessons for 6 years. Haven't played in a long time, but I've still got it in me, I'm sure. I have lots of Final Fantasy sheet music that I like to play, plus a scorebook of every recorded Beatles song.

Give yourself more credit, man!

I really have zero musical skill.

I've always wanted to play drums.


Phil doesn't know it yet, but I'm stalking him.

I dabble in harmonica, guitar, bass, and piano. I can't say I can play any of them, but I know some songs and if you give me the music I can pick it up.

I used to play the cello and middle school and the first two years of high school. I was okay at it, but not great.

I grew up in a super musical family and I'd like to think I have a decent sense of music, though. If you give me a baton I'll conduct any piece of music that you throw my way. I love the super funky stuff with weird time signatures.

I play a four string tenor banjo. Since I'm Irish I've learned to play it for Irish music & play it with a plectrum.

I feel like we have this thread pretty often.

I play a few instruments as well. :monster: My main instrument is guitar, but I can play drums and bass fairly well also. I took a piano class at school and have been trying to keep at that as well.

We do, and every time I have to tell you that bass doesn't count (unless you're Geddy Lee or that guy from Primus).

I've played guitar for around fifteen years and teach it in schools... which is great. I'm in a covers band here in the UK doing modern indie and classic rock stuff. There's a couple of videos knocking about EOFF somewhere...

I also been a bit obsessed with my ukulele for about two years. It. Is. Amazing.

I'm also an absolute wizard on the kazoo...

I have played Piano since I was 4 or 5 (can't really remember the exact age) and Guitar since I was 10 but not very often, I can play fairly well but I ain't no maestro. I do however play every year at a children's charity concert with about 50 other people both on Piano and Guitar which is always fun.

So much so, in fact, that I thought I had spotted my own post mentioning that point when I glanced yours out of the corner of my eye while scrolling. Basically, I thought you were me saying the same thing which really means we have this thread a lot.

I play bass, write and sing for an original Metal band here in the North East of England.
I use a lot of overdrive for a Motorhead esque sound, its lethal!
