If you've ever played an instrument and learned at least a song or two then give a shout out. Mention the instrument or instruments you play and how long you've been playing. I'll start off the shout.
Bass 5 years
Guitar 4 years
Tuba approx. 3-4 years
*Now that I'm not taking any music courses I'm not playing tuba. Although I might get one when I'm older, cause they are fun to play(Not nearly as fun as metal guitar though haha)

Piano - 27 years (teaching 10 years)
Clarinet - 7 years (gave up after high school)
Guitar - 15 years
Cello - 6 years
Flute - 2 years
Mandolin - 3 years (just started this one a few years ago...beautiful music)

Wow! You've got a thorough understanding of music I can see haha. What musical traning do you have? In Canada teachers need to have their Roayal Conservatory. What kind of training is required in the states? And I agree, Mandolin is quite beautiful. I've seen some videos of some amazing players. One of which played While My Guitar Gently Wheeps by George Harrison. Have you seen it? Its a guy playing on ground zero I believe, or some famous park in New York.
