I bet we have alot of musically enclined folks here, probably enough to start our own orchestra. What do you play or learned to play at one time??

I noodle around with a steel guitar, and took some lessons years ago to try to make it sound right.

I have played guitar since I was 10 years old. Daughters play guitar and piano. Oldest son plays saxaphone and bass guitar. Son Casey played trombone in school then dropped it like a rock after......:rolleyes:
Karen played accordian when she was young but wont admit to it....:p:p

I couldn't carry a tune in a bucket, much less play one on an instrument. :p

Back in High School though, I almost took up the banjo. :wow:

Played drums and Harmonica in a Country and Western bar band for a couple years.

Don't know if I was any good but I never had to buy my own beer.

I can play guitar, although not real well. My instrument of choice is a violin aka fiddle. I started playing one at age 8 and had 11 years of lessons.

Been playing the guitar since I was 11, or 33 years. Can pretty much play any style, but Classic Rock and "Hair Metal" are my specialties. :)

I used to sing & play electric guitar in years past. I started off on electric bass before I "went apesh_t" and bought a Marshall "stack" & a few Fender Strats.

I played classic rock in a few bar bands, and we occasionally delved into "thrash metal" as the night went on if the crowd wanted it!:cool:

I play the stereo, tape player, CD player in the truck, XM radio, and I can find GAC and CMT very easy on TV. Does that count?
I do, however, sing quite well, as long as it's Country.

Well, going through school, I played the clarinet, tenor sax, took piano lessons (didn't really do too well though) and guitar. But for my senior year in HS I quit the band and joined the Choir and Chamber Choir. I guess singing is my best instrument I play.

I would love to do Karaoke but I'm too chicken to get up in front of a crowd!

Hey, Bob!

Beings that I am hard of hearing I have to assume that she sings like someone from the desert east of San Berdoo................:wow:

As far as the "secret" is, all I can say is she plays a mean harmonica.......:hehe:
