Title: What instrument(s) did you play in middle/high school? Post by: Tiger on February 07, 2014, 04:43:51 pm I don't so much mean on the side (in your free time), but if you were ever in a band class (as many of us may have been for a year or two in middle school).
Although I've picked up and played most of the instruments in an orchestra outside of string instruments (my school didn't have them D:), I mostly played the French Horn, Clarinet, and Bari. Saxophone. ... and I guess I played the recorder from Gr. 4-6, lol. Title: Re: What instrument(s) did you play in middle/high school? Post by: Handass on February 07, 2014, 05:24:32 pm Alto Sax and Bassoon. I switched between the two constantly.

I would LOVE to buy and learn how to play a string instrument (other than guitar). Cello is probably my favourite.but soon....soon... Title: Re: What instrument(s) did you play in middle/high school? Post by: JabbaScrub on February 07, 2014, 07:08:21 pm Rockin' that sweet B♭ clarinet. Though I'd love to learn violin, piano, and really anything else I could.

I would LOVE to buy and learn how to play a string instrument (other than guitar). Cello is probably my favourite.but soon....soon... The cello makes a nice sound. I really enjoyed playing it. The violin I got is a really cheap one with a crappy bow that I'm going to use to learn. I have to buy a tuner for it because I suck at tuning and can't do it by ear and a book or two. Other than that, I'm not going to spend a ton of money on a trainer. Now the guitar is obviously one of the instruments that I'd like to learn. It's one of those "cool" instruments. Everyone wants to be the guitar hero. Quote from: JabbaScrub link=topic=25243.msg48, a9690#msg489690 date=1391821701 piano Oh, and the piano too. I'd like to learn the piano but don't have the money for that one. Title: Re: What instrument(s) did you play in middle/high school? Post by: Tiger on February 07, 2014, 08:47:23 pm I'm lucky. I have both a piano, keyboard, and guitar/amp in my room. I love it.
Title: Re: What instrument(s) did you play in middle/high school? Post by: Laughing Turd on February 07, 2014, 08:55:14 pm What songs can you play on the guitar and piano?
Title: Re: What instrument(s) did you play in middle/high school? Post by: Tiger on February 07, 2014, 09:41:21 pm I play by ear, and mostly improv everything as I go. I've never really taken lessons, so I just kinda play. A few pieces I actually know are Fur Elise, Moonlight Sonata, and I've been teaching myself Flight of the Bumblebee which is fun, lol. This is all on the piano by the way.
For guitar, I again taught myself and play by ear, but I'm not nearly as good at guitar as I am piano. I prefer playing bass guitar because it's easier to improv stuff in between chord transitions.

Post by: dudedudedude for Moderator on February 08, 2014, 12:33:25 am Started out with drums, but moved into an apartment and needed something I could play quieter so I took up mixing.
Title: Re: What instrument(s) did you play in middle/high school? Post by: CitizenSoldier3 on February 08, 2014, 05:49:32 am Trombone for 1 year in elementry, in which I gave up for sports. Wish I was taller back then, almost could dunk at 5'-11".
I cant sing/dance, honestly not good at music. Title: Re: What instrument(s) did you play in middle/high school? Post by: BMan on February 12, 2014, 08:46:50 am 2 technics and crates full of vinyl. Two turntables and a microphone :DPlayed rhythm guitar in high school and college. Won a battle of the bands type show in college, but only because our lead guitarist wailed. Still have my '85 candy-apple red Stratocaster, but my old amp sucks ballsacks. Title: Re: What instrument(s) did you play in middle/high school? Post by: June on March 08, 2014, 05:51:52 pm I never played an instrument.
However, now I have a piano. If I could choose an instrument, I'd want to learn the ukulele. Title: Re: What instrument(s) did you play in middle/high school? Post by: Tiger on March 08, 2014, 06:45:36 pm Ukulele eh? Sounds pretty hipster.
