Guitar, piano, and trumpet. I'm better at the first two, but I like the third one best.

Violin since i was 9 and the Piano since i was 11. I can play the cello as well but i'm not very good at it. I can play the viola just as well as the violin. I was a good enough violinist to be in the arkansas youth sympthomy but once i found jazz i pretty much gave up the violin.


I'm a pretty good piano player. I can still play the violin and do but I am a much better piano player nowadays, jazz mostly though a little something of everything.

I had a much more formal violin education than piano and i can read violin sheet music like i am reading this message board, but i'm 100% self taught on the piano and can't read sheet music to save my life. however, i'm 10x the piano player than i am the violin player, i play 100% by ear. I have extremely good pitch.

Drums.

Started playing a kit at age 12. Haven't stopped. Marching band in HS.

Was in a blues band for a few years. Played some gigs. A few casinos. Was fun.

Besides my wife and unborn child, drums & music are pretty much all I worry about.

Play a little guitar, fake a little piano/keyboard, and keep a steady/easy beat on a set of drums.

Only played on a stage twice though. Both "sit ins" at sorority formals, guitar once/keys once.

Still remember every minute of it, and can see how being a rock star would be the coolest job in the world. It was an amazing rush.

On guitar, I got to sit in/play "You Can't Always Get What You Want" (Stones), and "Fire" (Jimi).

Next year, did the "California Girls" on keys.

As a drummer, I feel that everyone here who lists guitar anddrums isn't really a drummer. Might just be uptight or biased, but that's how I feel.



I have a brother in law that says he plays Piano, Guitar and drums. I've seen him play all three. He really only plays piano, but he enjoys the look on people's face when he says he plays 3 instruments. I have met many many people like this throughout my music hobby time.

I can half arse play trumpet and piano, but I never tell anyone that when they ask what I play. I only say drums.

Also, every guitar player plays bass, but not every bass player can play guitar. fact

im playing at chelseas for the first time this weekend...im nervous


One tip:
If you hit a wrong note on stage or skip over a part of a song, don't look around at your bandmates like you just "messed" up. Keep on as if it's part of the song and no one will know that you made a mistake. If you do give off the looks, the crowd will know you f'd up and never come watch you play again.
