Do you play an instrument?

I do not.
I know Deanna does.
I'm guessing many posters do.
And I only love them when they're playing.

I used to play the cello, but haven't in six years.

What? Wherever did you get that idea



Yeah...I play percussion...but haven't in a long while...so I pretty much only play drums (set) now...and that is also a rarity...BUT I am playing with a local band in the next couple of weeks (before I leave for D.C.)

I kind of play piano as well...but I'm not very good at it

I tried to teach myself guitar, but got frustrated and decided to stick with what I know...

I like the cello. The Yom HaShoah services I've attended in Austin & Houstin the last few years typically begin with a cello player performing the theme to Schindler's List. Beautiful sound.

I was known in band for my superb tambourine playing skills! I actually really was known for that though because I was in the auxiliary percussion/xylophone section, and my teacher always wanted me to play the tambourine for a song during half-time shows because of how much I got into the music. But, in a more serious matter, I can also play the xylophone and can plunk out some things still on the piano. I took piano lessons for six years and quit...the worst mistake I ever made.

Somewhere in the parallel universe where destiny rules, there's a poster named TriangleClinkerDeanna.

Did you do the Gold and Braid high kicks with the tambourine?
I wish I could play the piano. It's my favorite, along with the cello.

I've never taken piano lessons but if I listen long enough and concentrate, depending on the song (nothing technical and intricate), there's a good chance I'll able to play it back.

All your Fabulous Baker Boys/Michelle Pfeiffer on the piano impressions have paid off.

BTW, I got your PM but am not seeing an option to reply, only to forward. Any clue?

That's right....coordinator by day....lounge singer by night

Hmm....i would think there should be an option to reply. If not, I suppose it will work to just send a new message instead of hitting reply? I'm not sure. This is all still strange with an element of familiarity...if that makes any sense

[estranged4life]

I can play guitar, bass, drums & keyboard/piano (I'm not a great kb/piano player whatsoever).

Kinda strange but noone else in my family is musically gifted (But my 11 yr.old niece Kendra will soon be starting piano lessons...The brat has the longest fingers I have ever seen, Bad enough she looks identical to me, But to have God curse her with those big ol' flapjack hands is another thing!!!)

I can play Happy Birthday on the keyboard and that's it

[xdreamsunwindx]

Well, not really. I have a pretty good ear for music, but I can't play an instrument for the life of me. I can pick certain songs out on the keyboard (I can play U2's October, the piano version of SOTM, etc), but I can't play any actual songs. I can sing, but that's not exactly an instrument... lol. I did figure out how to play Jefferson Airplane's White Rabbit on a toy guitar, though .

Jake - scary that you should mention this.
I play piano by ear but yesterday at my folk's place for Easter, my dad (who can play guitar well) was trying to figure out NGBA. I got inspired and had a go, and soon found myself playing something remotely similar to The Chain. When I got home today I recorded it! Not bad for second day on guitar, but be prepared for a giggle, especially when I make the mistake of trying to sing on it, despite having to sing so softly in order for neighbouring apartments not to hear. (I started singing and I thought I heard the people upstairs packing their things.)

With your voice it is, Kate.
