Play any instruments? *would you like to? (if you don't) (blues, bass)

amandamcmadrox · 12-09-2007, 01:47 AM

Here it goes...

Guitar (taking classes in school)
Drums (taking classes in school)
Bass (self taught)
Clarinet (been playing for 5 years but I really haven't touched it in a while)
Keyboard/Piano (self taught)

I'd have to say out of any of those, I really want to continue working in percussion. Right now I'm just learning basic skills for the snare drum, drumset, and mallet instruments. I'm learning a lot of rudiments that most people don't know about. I'm just seeming to pick it up quickly and I alsolutely love it. Music always comes easy though and it's definetly a passion of mine.

i sing, play piano, play guitar, play drums, play bass and baritone

So I play trumpet, baritone, tuba, piano, ukulele. If Ukulele counts. I had a weird mom who wouldn't let me learn guitar in the house.

I'm suprised at how well I am able to pick up other instruments just through knowing theory through keyboard.

I'm a bassist

although I've been leaning towards keyboards for a bit...maybe I'll get the guts to start all over again with a new instrument soon
