Can you play an instrument? I have been playing keyboard/piano since I was young, but it's just been the last month that I have really been cooking.

You know what song I think is awesome musically, but sad and morbid...is "Streets of Philadelphia" by Bruce Springsteen. That one would be good to play on a synth since the lyrics are a simple F ... Am ... F... Am.

That's true. Can't say I've played Synth in a while though. It's big fun.

I've been playing the tuba for 9 years now in marching and concert bands.

I used to play the piano back in the day, but I wouldnt be very good anymore.

I can play songs by chords..but I a still working at it. Some songs I have learned to play:

Have a Little Faith in Me - John Hiatt
You Can't Hurry Love - Diana Ross and the Supremes
Brown Eyed Girl - Van Morrison
Livin' on a Prayer - Bon Jovi
Who Say's You Can't Go Home - Bon Jovi

and many, many more. Infact, if anyone is interested in hearing some samples, I'd be happy to post them.

I played piano for about 6-7 years, but quit.  My last piano teacher was Russian (in every sense of the word; stereotypes included), which was part of it.  I also absolutely loathed the recitals I was forced into.

Trombone, however, which I have played for 6 years, is much better.  Especially because my private lesson teacher and I talk politics for half of our lessons Smiley

I've been teaching myself how to play a keyboard. Not easy. I've been working on it for over a year, and have learned to play some songs by ear such as Amazing Grace, Hail to the Chief, and the Rocky themes.

I'd also kill to learn how to play guitar.

I used to play drums, but the instructor enjoyed throwing things (small things) at people who messed up, and I wasnt really up to that, so I quit after a year.

I used to take piano lessons and could play Fur Elise exceptionally. I quit the lessons last summer and can now only play okay.

I joined the school orchestra in the 6th grade and learned to play the violin. I graduated the 6th grade 8 years ago, but I still have a basic understanding of the violin.
