I was just wondering how many Nationstates players played an instrument, and if so what instrument they played.

I myself am a drumer. I play drumkit and Tenors (Quads)

I just bought an acoustic guitar this weekend and am learning it rather well. I also can play the saxaphone, flute, and drums.

This has got to be the 10 millionth thread asking this question.

I mainly play drums, but I am proficient with guitar and bass, and I know a few songs on piano.

I sing, play bass guitar and fiddle around with any other instrument I can get my hands on.

Been in several bands - hearing yourself on the radio or tv is bizzarre :D

Classical guitar was my primary instrument (though I don't play much anymore), electric guitar (mostly improvisational jazz), and electric bass. Also played clarinet, violin and trumpet - and currently play flute and piano (which I use quite often for composing) ....

What was the question? never mind ....

I play percussion, a wide range of it. From mallet instruments (my worst area) to the trap set to Timpani (I think thats how you spell it).

So I guess you could say I play, the Drums!

(So does this mean that most NS people on the Forum's play the drums :))

Looks that way doesn't it

And with the mallet instruments, I suck at it aswell, my teacher gave up on teaching it to me. I wonder now many drummers here have it as their best area.

I think I beat everyone here, though I'm not competing! :p

(In order of proficiency)

Electric/Steel-string Acoustic
Drums
Classical Guitar
The Strings (Violin, Viola, Cello, Bass, Electric Bass)
Piano
Mandolin
The Saxophones (Alto, Tenor, Baritone. I don't play Soprano)

(Below I suck at all of them, but can play songs ;) )

Clarinet
Flute
Trumpet
French Horn
Oboe
Trombone

Only the first 4, and piano do I play regularially. I don't own any of the other insturments, though I do want a violin so I can improve. The main reason it's so high is because of the Bass/Electric Bass which I am good at. The rest I eather play at school occasionally in free class time (i.e. I take my friend's insturments and play stuff!) or with my girlfriend, who plays most of them too.

Sorry to brag. I try not to be arrogant about my talent. :p

P.S. Before you ask, yes I can play songs on all insturments. If I listed it, I can play more than 10 notes on it.

I used to be able to play the piano. And recorder. But now I play the strange and wonderful instrument known as the French Horn!

And I like to pretend that I can play a didgeridoo (I can at least make cool noises with it!) and 8-hole ocarina.

I play the drums, though not nearly as often as I should, which sucks since I'd love to be in a band.
