What instruments do you guys play?

I've been teaching myself how to play the Anglo Concertina, because I found one. I also play clarinet and guitar. What do you guys play?

I play the keyboard.

Specifically qwerty.

I use to play trumpet and violin. Hated violin, loved trumpet, got braces, couldn't play anymore.

I did marching band with braces for a year.

I think I could have gotten over the pain but the biggest pain was psychological. Before braces I was in Jazz band and could hit epic high notes easily. With braces I had a very hard time hitting even medium notes. Sometimes my notes would waver and it'd be difficult to even hold a g.

I wanted to be in Jazz band again but my ability to play was severely crippled. With a stone cold heart I turned away from all that I once loved. I became a senile old man just living the last of his days to die.

I see. Well, that's a shame.

Wow, I played the clarinet too! It was in the highschool marching band. Also a little saxophone. Recently I kinda taught myself some basic guitar but I haven't got very far with that. :P

I've been playing guitar for something like 7 years now. Despite that fact, I am apparently not a rock-legend yet. False advertising if ever I've seen any.

However, I am fairly good at it. Probably not worth the incredible cost of guitars, books, lessons, and the infinite number of picks that disappear, only to reappear as soon as you buy more, but still. I'm competent enough. Aside from writing, it's basically the only talent I have that's worth talking about, since I never had the brain for programming. That, and probably Super Smash Bros. I can drop a mad combo if I try hard enough. XD

Well, I'm fairly good at coming up with random weird YouTube videos too, but that's not really a marketable skill...

Unless of course you can pull some ad revenue making veedee-os for you tube.
