    Do you play any musical instruments?

    I play bass in my band! Been playing in a band for about 2 years. Most likely we'll be recording this summer.. We mix up all kinds of sounds.. We try everything.. I think we've developed a pretty special sound.. Grungy punk electronica that's great to chill to. :-)

                  I played the trumpet for 5 years in school. Started out being fairly decent and became sucky. However, it did my breath control a world of good.

                      I used to have a trap drum set, played rock drums...not really with any intention of ever being in a band, just because I really dig drumming. It's funny, I was just thinking about all that, was downloading a bunch of Stomp clips on Kazaa.

                      Ever seen or heard those guys? Wicked stuff...they drum on anything they can get their hands on -- I've seen them do pieces using pushbrooms, trashcan lids, even playing cards and kitchen utensils.

                            I do wish that I hadn't started to suck but I wanted to be a journalist and band sessionals and journalism class were always schdeuled against each other. I guess my passions sided more with the writing.

                                          Keys, bass, guitar, drums used to play trumpet. Now I fake it all doing sequencing/editing for recording projects in the area. Play bass for fun in a local band.

                                            If we're gonna mention singing, I do that too, occasionally. I'm in the Society for Creative Anachronism, and I used to do a lot of singing for events, singing medieval and Renaissance period songs, along with filk songs, too.

                                            My favorite one to perform was "The Scotsman" -- you may have heard it on the radio, Dr. Demento, etc, about a Scotsman who gets drunk, passes out, and two pretty girls come along, lift his kilt to admire his goods, and then leave a blue hair ribbon tied around his cock. The Scot wakes up to take a piss, and when he lifts his kilt and sees the ribbon, he gasps out, "Och, lad, I dunno where ye been, but I see ye won first prize!"

                                            I also used to do more traditional stuff like "Greensleeves", "Rose, Rose", etc...lots of fun. Nothing like getting up to sing, dressed in medieval garb, in front of a crowd of other people dressed the same way, at an authentic medieval feast. Yes, I am a re-creationist geek.

                                              Same here. And I sing along, usually out of tune. But I enjoy it

                                                    Took 9 years of piano lessons as a child/teen. Also play alto-clarinet, bass-clarinet, Irish Flute, piccolo and a little guitar.

                                                    I love playing just about any instrument I get in my hands... (save brass...lol)

                                                              6 years of lessons with classical Violin

My cello teacher was tought by Yo Yo Ma and i won 3 scholorships for site reading and one of those scholorships gave me the chance to be the youngest cello playing to play a concert with the Philharmonic of fort lauderdale.

                                                              The sad thing is i have 2 cello's, 1 viola, and a beautful baldwin babygrand at home and i haven't play any of them in years. i'm such a waste of talent!

                                                                        The Martin 000-15 is an amazing instrument. I think its a replica of a 30's martin M series. No fancy inlays, no laminate, just raw finished wood. Its got the blues.

I'm in the Society for Creative Anachronism, and I used to do a lot of singing for events, singing medieval and Renaissance period songs, along with filk songs, too.

                                                                          My favorite one to perform was "The Scotsman" -- you may have heard it on the radio, Dr. Demento, etc, about a Scotsman who gets drunk, passes out, and two pretty girls come along, lift his kilt to admire his goods, and then leave a blue hair ribbon tied around his cock. The Scot wakes up to take a piss, and when he lifts his kilt and sees the ribbon, he gasps out, "Och, lad, I dunno where ye been, but I see ye won first prize!"

                                                                          I also used to do more traditional stuff like "Greensleeves", "Rose, Rose", etc...lots of fun. Nothing like getting up to sing, dressed in medieval garb, in front of a crowd of other people dressed the same way, at an authentic medieval feast. Yes, I am a re-creationist geek.

                                                                            started out as a mediocre guitarist (a much better songriter than player), then became the vocalist of a speed metal band in high school and found it eaiser to play bass rather than guitar while singing, so started playing bass (besides, we needed a bass player) and really feel in love with bass and became a much better bass player than guitar player.
                                                                            I've been a vocalist in a couple bands (I mainly did the screaming/yelling stuff, I'm a vocalist, not a fucking singer ;))

                                                                            I'll also fiddle around on banjo and piano

                                                                            I was in a band that did speed/thrash vesions of country songs so started playing banjo to add some odd sounds to the already odd stuff we were ounding out anyways

                                                                            I'm mulling breaking out some of the songs I've written (over 200 pages of lyrics) and start recording some new stuff...

I never got up to Houston for the Renaissance Fest there, mostly because of the distance but also because Texas RenFaire is MUCH stricter about garb than the SCA -- if you were going to work a booth for the SCA at RenFaire, you had to be accurate down to hairstyle and frickin' shoes, and they didn't like to see glasses, watches, or modern cigarettes, etc...I'd die if I couldn't pull out a pack of Kools from my waist pouch and light up.

                                                                                            (Although one time when I was lighting up, I almost set my sleeve on fire -- I was wearing a dress with HUGE belled sleeves that hung almost down to the ground, and just as held my lighter up to my cig, the wind kicked up and whipped my sleeve across my face... ARGGGH!)
