Anyone else play an instrument?

Another flute player here. I started when I was about 12 I think...It was the cool thing to do...be in the BAND in school. I wasn't committed enough though. I also had so much trouble with allergies...blocked up nose, I kind of found it a bit difficult. Still loved it though.

I now have DS learning the drums!

And guitar since 2002.

Piano here and another who was going to go study at the conservatorium of music but had DD instead. I must admit I didn't enjoy playing at all but I was made to play by my mother. My DD has been playing piano for 6months. I didn't want her to play but she nagged me so much eventually I gave in. I think she only wanted to play because I do.

Violin but haven't picked it up in months

I want to - just lack the time!

Another flute player...played from 10 until just before I had dd, so 15 years. I want to keep it up but can't afford lessons and feel a bit stagnant (I have only played classical music).

I would love to play piano, but don't have a keyboard. My whole family are musical and dh's family are too...dh is the least inclined to play an instrument but learnt trumpet and piano as a child.

Em I would LOVE to play French horn!!

Not me personally (I danced) Hubby plays piano and is in a Big Band. he can also play Guitar, Sax and Drums. DD has been brought up with him playing and we listen to a lot of Jazz. If that influences her great if not so be it ... she'll prolly be a sporty girl rather than an arts girl

Flute player in high school, think mums still has mine!

Tenor sax here. Year seven I was given the trumpet after I fluked a sound and then never made another, so I went on to clarinet and then to the sax. I love the sax. Went to band camp too, and was the best! I even won the highest award for music that was offered at my school (yeah, brag moment there!!!!!). But sadly, we couldn't afford my own, so the hire of it came to an end when I finished school.

So a couple of years back I went and bought an alto sax.....and was so bad and rusty at playing it that I was too embarrassed to play it when anyone was around, therefore it didn't get used. I sold it last year.

I play DH's wallet! It makes a lovely 'ch-ching' sound when there are nice shoes on sale!!!! hahahaah

In all seriousness, no, is my answer. I'm in awe of people playing an instrument. It's like people who know another language to me. Best of luck with it!! Sounds awesome!
