I used to play the recorder in the school band .. we won awards too .. !
And when I was little we had an old pump action organ that came out of a chapel .. I wasn't big enough to pump the foot pedals and play at the same time .. so I used to pump up and down like mad .. play a few notes .. then have to pump again .. I thought I was brilliant .. but it didn't take long for dad to take an axe to it and smash it up so I couldn't play it anymore ..

bless you, I was allowed the indian bells, the triangel and eventually the tamborine at school. I tried to teach myself guitar once but I'm left handed and the guitar was old and warped - it did not sound good. I would like to try again one day or maybe the drums, that'd be cool.

I used to play the guitar and the trumpet in the school band when I was in school. I wasn't able to continue learning either after I left school. I remember a bit of both still and hope someday I can get back to playing the guitar. I also played the drums occasionally in the school band. I enjoyed learning these instruments.

Well, for school I played the viola for about one year. We only rented it, so I don't still have it, and even if I did I know that I wouldn't remember how it play it after all of these years, lol. But the instrument that I bought for myself was an electric guitar. The silly thing is, I still don't have an amplifier for it, lol. That's okay, because one of my friends had one that I used to use sometimes, and I haven't really played my guitar in years now anyway. But I did used to try to teach myself guitar chords. I never got very far, but there were some simple songs that I could play.

Yes I do! I play guitar, keyboards or piano and a little bit in drums. But among these instruments, I consider guitar as my best buddy. It's easier to learn than the other instruments. You know what? Way back when I was still 12, I was also a tone deaf. I couldn't really figure out the exact tone and tune of a certain song. Until I learned it pretty well. It's just a matter of practice. So why not try it? It's cool and it's fun! You would learn to appreciate music even more when you know how to play even just one musical instrument. :)
