Registeel_Rocks you're kinda right. When beginners play the violin it is ear shattering but I'm sorta in the middle.

* * Piplup * *

so that's why your sister hates it? I see now

I like violins when they're played in a more "Rock" kind of setting. like for the theme song for "Angel" and in "down and out" by tantric.

I prefer the full orchestra. So I think piplup should learn how to play every string instrument at once and form the Psypoke Orchestra.

I play keyboard with a band called 'Rock On'. Original, isn't it? I didn't think of the name. My friend on the bass did. We're both 13.

Eh, I only play the piano. I've played the piano for 2 years now.

I can most defintely say that I sing. In fact, last year I sang "God Bless America" at a Minnesota Twins game in front of 21,000 people. I also sing the National Anthem a lot for sporting events such as football and basketball and I'm also in the choir at my church.

I play the trombone, organ in my living room, and the drums in my free time=P

I play alto saxophone in concert band and marching band. Also in orchestra I play it and occaisionally string bass. In indoor percussion I play in the pit (keyboard instruments), but my favorite is the marimba . In my spare time through the years I've taught myself how to play piano (very well, acctually) and some guitar. And sing while playing those. I just love playing music so much. My favorite song to play on piano are (mostly Beatles) Imagine, Hey Jude, I Am The Walrus, and (ooh, some Elton John) Rocket man.
Overall though, marching band and indoor percussion (which are mirror musical departments at my school) are my absolute favorites. I HIGHLY reccommend anyone who likes to play music to join either (yes there are spots for guitarists).

BY THE WAY:
If anyone who reads this is assosiated with the Tournament of Bands Chapter XI and are going to participate in the "Weekend at Wildwood", PM me!

Well don't you feel special...

Actually you should because at my school music options are band/jazz band and choir. I dislike the band directer with a passion so I can't do band or jazz band so my only option is choir. I would love to be in orchestra.

I know you're being sarcastic, but thanks anyway.

I play ocarina (Songbird Zelda Replica, an STL Purple Clay Mini Ocarina and a Maparam Triple Ocarina), which I've played for almost 4 years now, a bit of piano, and I'll begin with lessons for the electric guitar late August/early September (only for a year, since I'll move out after that... A bit late to start playing something when you're almost 18, huh? ^^;)

I've played violin for 3 years.

I Play trumpet...but i also enjoy piano and drums

I think its pretty much in agreement here that vocals are an instrument.

I sing tenor/baritone and its pretty much awesomeness.

i can sing (me of all people) i like to sing rock music and surprisingly can get my voice pretty high-pitched for my octave. I wish someone would teach me screamo. I tried but it just sounded like i was yelling any tips guys?

i play the drums...since 6th grade now...i also play the piano ( not much) i can play guitar and bass but guitar i can only play steady beats..i cant sing..and i can actually play trumpet..im in band and im in marching for drums too

I play vocals. Yes ot is an instrument. Don't argue with me. I'm right.

I play a 4-hole ocarina right now. Simple, but a very nice instrument to play.

Violin: 7 Years, currently 3rd chair in my school's orchestra
Guitar (electric mostly, a little bit of acoustic): 3 Years, all self-taught, not in a band, but I might join Jazz Band in junior year of High School
Electric Bass: 1 year, self-taught
Piano: ~8 months, self-taught
Trumpet: 2 years, played on my own, never really liked it
Harmonica: On and off, no formal self-teaching
Obviously, Vocals are a strong point for me, but I never joined the chorus in school because they sucked, I never cared much for "halleluya" or songs with many references to religion (which the chorus' always tend to sing)

Some others I've tried and am proficient at (just played on it a few times, and can read the clef), but don't possess:
Xylophone, drums, cello, viola, upright bass, percussion

Thats it.

All I play is piano.

And I didn't necessarily say well. :P

If you want to talk about platinum, we have a forum for that here. If you need to arrange a trade, refer to the Wifi Trading Thread. Remember to stay on topic when making a post.

I play...
Violin, Electric and Acoustic Guitar and Bass, Trumpet, Alto Sax, Piano, Flute, Piccolo, Cello, Upright Bass, Viola, Drums, Harmonica, Vocals, Trombone, and Clarinet.

Whew. I have all these instruments in my home, either in my closet or just around the house. I don't belong to any band, but I play whenever I feel like jamming on one. >.> this is the result to my childhood inability to made decisions

Hmm...for me basically I only play piano.
