How many of you play a musical Instrument?
I just started learning to play the banjo.

Mama made us all take piano lessons as kids, and I’m sure glad she did. It’s a fantastic foundation for anyone to have even if you don’t stick with it. Then I taught myself bass guitar in a week or two as a teenager. Knowing piano made it easy.

I used to play the guitar and banjo but I haven't picked up either one in years

Currently playing Guitar in a band and Bass Guitar Sunday mornings on a praise team.

No one ever said, "I wish I had never learned to play ________."

I play a little guitar. Not learning to play musical instruments is one of my big regrets.

My wife and I both agreed that our 3 boys would start piano lessons at 8 yrs old. They are now 18, 20 and 22 yrs old and play a pile of different things-guitar, piano, trumpets, saxs, french horn, cello and a bunch of small instruments.
The boys were all home from college until last Sunday. It was great to see and hear them play and talk about music together. Looking back, I think it is one of the best gifts we gave them. The joy they get from playing will be with them for their lifetimes.

If you have young children, give some thought to getting music lessons for them. It may not be pleasent when they are practicing at first, but seeing how happy they are when they play later on makes it all worth it-you'll know you did a good thing for them.

I play the Bowed Psaltery. Supposedly in the top 10 easiest instruments to play. I've played it in front of the church a time or two. And always at Christmas.

I used to play the piano by ear,,but then my ears got sore.

I used to play on the Linoleum when I was a kid.

My three kids did very well in high school band, and now my two eleven year old granddaughters play viola and cello in a "string" orchestra.

My neighbor knocked on my door at 2:30 A.M. this morning, can you believe that, 2:30 A.M.!
Lucky for him I was still up playing my drums.

There is an electric organ here, if someone wants it come get it. I hate to junk it but it is in my way.

My goose and duck calls are as close to a musical instrument that I play. Tried to play the coronet in school, but that never turned out very well.

Trumpet, help out the music teacher here at school as she is a vocal and woodwind... not brass, baritone and french horn, Brass cause it kicks a.... Play it loud and play it proud.

Been playing guitar since the 70s. Played out quite a bit in bars and clubs over the years. Used to be good money in it but not so much anymore. I still have a few amps, mics, cables and other stuff that I need to send down the way. I've sold off all my Les pauls and am down to a Martin acoustic. I made sure each of my kids learned to play an instrument, and while at the time they were annoyed with it they each said they were glad down the road.

Played trumpet and french horn through high school. Picked up guitar, mt. dulcimer and harmonica since then. Have had great times around camp fires playing music with friends.
