    Well if we're counting instruments; I play drums, piano and geetar.

    Also, I can eat whatever and not put on any weight, and I can bend the tips of my fingers while keeping the rest of my fingers perfectly straight.

    I can crack my thumb on command. Which by itself seems, and is, kinda stupid. But I can ganerally fool people into thinking i'm cracking my nose, and that makes them look stupid which makes me laugh.

    I'm amazing at posting Facebook statuses for everything, too. If that counts.

    I'm a musician by trade. Been playing trumpet for about 16 years and play all of the trumpet family instruments (piccolo trumpet, flugelhorn, etc.) very well. I play semi-professionally doing gigs like weddings year round. Times like Easter, Patriotic Holidays and especially Christmas are my busy times. I also play all of the other brass instruments passably well.

    My day job is playing the piano, so I guess I do okay at that too. Additionally I play accordion and guitar and can pick up most instruments fairly quickly. I'm pretty rounded on percussion (note I didn't say "drums") and can get around most stuff that's not four-mallets.

    I'm not great at woodwinds, though my wife is a woodwinds specialist playing primarily oboe and clarinet though she plays flute and saxophone extremely well also. Bassoon is about her only limitation as far as woodwinds go.

    I sing baritone while my wife sings mezzo.

    I can also tune and do moderate repairs to pianos.


    Oh... and I can do that thing where I vibrate my eyes as well as burp on demand.


    EDIT: Another one my wife likes to trot out at parties... I have virtually no gag reflex and I can easily deep-throat very large jelly-type dildos making all of our gay friends sad that I only swing the one way.

    I actually meant Singstar singing. Rock band singing is easy, I agree.

    Oh...nothing. I mean, I'm sure all 4 strings are equally hard to master.

    If you play it, then you can judge. If you don't, then you can't. Never know how hard or easy an instrument is until you play it. <3

    However, I have always thought that 'playing bass' is a cheap way to get into a band. Haha.
