There are a couple of punk bands that just plain suck yet they're so great like the Nobodys and the Queers.

Irish folk accordion for a while. Was even in a pretty fourth rate band. Also did the folk recorder (per DEN) for just a bit, but my asthma wouldn't let me continue. These days, I just play music--on CDs.

Irish Folk accordian? That's awesome. Never heard of it, but awesome nonetheless.

Irish folk accordion is more a matter of what you play, than the instrument type you use. I had a standard single reed piano accordion (that is, buttons for one hand, piano-style keys for the other). Fancier models usually heard in good bands have triple reeds, but they're hideously expensive. Melodeons are expanded concertinas that show up in some Irish folk bands, as well, with button keys on both sides. Personally I don't like the sound of single reed accordions at all, but triple reed instruments have a richness that's wonderful.

I guess that one could say that I play the piano. I'm not extremely good at it, but lack of outstanding talent gets more or less compensated by passion for it. I often have problems to give a finishing touch to the piece, removing the little last errors, and my fingers are often not very cooperative, when trying to speed a technically difficult piece up to the right level, though I am practising a lot of technique excersises to loosen the fingers a lil' bit.
Right now I'm trying to complete the pieces Pavane by Hendrik Andriessen and Fantasia in D Minor by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and am learning the Second Rhapsody of Johannes Brahms (great piece). I also did a move towards the very fast Fantasie Impromptu by Frederique Chopin, though got stuck on the rythym there, which is four notes on the right hand, next to three on the left hand; hard! If anyone has any advice regarding the pieces just mentioned, sure, post ahead.

I've been a professional musician (semi-pro at least) for over 25 years, have released a CD, toured internationally, and now run a music shop and teach, while still playing with my band and solo. My main instrumnent is guitar but I sing, play and teach keyboards and bass, play harmonica, saxaphone, drums, and compose music both as songs and for soundtracks. I'm mainly self taught but along the way I've been to the Sydney Conservatorium Jazz School. My main instrument is a 1979 Antigua Stratocaster with EMGs which I like to play through a 1983 ProReverb, although in my time I have had the full Marshall Plexi setup

I play saxophones too, I've tried all except soprano, and I'm very good at the alto.

I play some keyboard, clarinet (badly), and flute (also, badly).
What else? Hmmm... I'm the best person I know at air congas.

Recorder, but I don't think that counts...

On topic, i played the sax (didnt know there were different kinds) back in 5th grade if that counts, i was too bad to play the recorder if that tells you anything...

i'll just quote myself from the other thread
play the guitar! electric, but alse accoustic. i study music, and here it works this way. when you enter music school, you pick one instrument which is your main, and two other who are your "lesser" intruments. i have guitar as main, and piano and song as lesser( you have to have piano and song, so since i have guitar as main, i have to have those two)
so that means.. guitar, piano and song
