Does anyone play an instrument on here?
Let's write down your instrument, what organization you've used it for, and for how long, hm? ^^

I've played.....

~The Classical C Flute for Two years now for my school band; I'll be going on to high school next year and joining the marching band.
~C Piccolo for Exactly six months; For my school band and other extracurricular activities
~The Piano, classical; for about three months a few years before and now I only use it during composition
~The Shakuhatchi; I have had no instruction in this and I find it too big for me, but I do try; about three months.

I just gained a best friend.....<333

Oh Dear God, you are a virtuoso...
I feel tremendously insignificant next to you OTL
I would say voice, but it'd probably crack the globe in half.

That's awesome ^^
Do any of you actually play music for a living? Like, freelance playing?

Nah, I have no musical talent whatsoever. But I can play a few Christmas songs on the trumpet. xD That's about it.

I could, if I had enough money to pick up my own bass.

Sadly, I'm poor. u_u

Whatever, though. I'm giving music lessons, which probably pays better.

Meh...I ain't that impressive...

I play the Bb clarinet in school for 6 years, for both marching band and concert, though I might have to switch to Eb in the next school year. I play the piano as well, for about 11 years, though I wish to quit FOR GOOD!
~~(Stupid Asian parents...)~~
For some odd reason, I have a guitar sitting in the back of my closet, collecting dust. I don't know if it's mine or not, but it now has a 3-years supply of dust bunnies.

xDDD To keep up band throughout high school counts as impressive.
Except, it's like heroin: it brings you pleasure and it's addictive and always picks you up when you're down.
I quit piano......
X ~ x I can still play stuff on it, but I quit.
Clarinet's are awesome.
Just, nothing pwns the flute ;]
