Poll: Poll: do you play an instrument?

[Bored Tomatoe]

I searched forums, nothing came up.
I was wondering if anyone at the escapist plays an instrument...
I myself play the drums, rock mostly and was just wondering if anyone else plays one.

 

[Jamanticus]

Yes, I play an instrument.... Cello all the way.

And I whistle.....

 

[meatloaf231]

Yeah, I dabble in electric bass, drums, and more than dabble in trombone. It's impossible to look cool while playing trombone though.

My brother plays the trombone and has yet to pull off looking cool.......

Bollocks, put on a leisure suit, some dark sunglasses and one those Al Capone style hats and you cool playing any brass wind instrument.

I plat electric bass and I attempt acoustic guitar, getting better at it, but holding chords is proving difficult for my fingers since they've been trained for plucking and slapping.

 

[Amnestic]

I play rockband guitar, rockband bass and rockband drums... ;D

In all seriousness though, I'm no good at any instruments, my friends keep telling me I have a fairly capable singing voice though, so I guess that's something.

[Shirahime]

I used to play organ and guitar, but crap nerves and cramping wrists soon stopped that.


And I can't whistle.

Me, too! I'd look like a badass when I cello-ized next...

To get back on topic, I play the piano as well (although that's more of a fun hobby than a way of life)

 

[TheGhostOfSin]

I'll add some thing to the thread then
I play all fretted instruments that I know of.
Guitar is my best, but gotta give love to the Banjo
I can play two songs on piano Let It Be and Imagine

 

[Stormcloud23]

guitar, cello, piano, drums, alto saxophone, bass, and ruler (no seriously. take a twelve inch ruler and hold one end of it one the table with one hanging off and flick it. Move it up and down and the pitch will change...) here's an example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gx2E6YMSFP8
that's not me but i can play it
