I was curious if there are any musicians in our midst?

I, myself, play the guitar.

I think a lot of people would say the violin is a shitty instrument to play but I think it's awesome. You can use it in a lot of different music, even heavy metal :D.

i played the violin for a month in 3rd grade, then got kicked out due to lack of practice. After that I played the flute which i loved and no it's not a pussy instrument for girls. Sadly, I stopped for some reason, but hey guitar rules, tho im curious about drums also.

wish i played the flute. It sounds the best of all the instruments ive heard. PLUS the case is sooooooooooo small that it isnt a hassle to carry around. Try being a double bass player and have to bring it to another place....

Forced to take a class on piano in high school. Failed miserably. Luckily the class was only three students, and one was already proficent so it was the advance class for her, and the other was my buddy who was as lazy as I was so we never learned anything and still passed the class. Wonderful. Looking back though I wish I had learned atleast a little bit.

But what I would realy love to play is the guitar. To me the greatest instrument is the guitar. Electric and acoustic. Both key to know and use in my opinion.
