I've been playing guitar for 9 years now, Violin has been picked up and put down a number of times.

Ever since I heard a certain Patrick Wolf song I've been dying to learn the violin....I've got to learn how to

Lizzie · 01-27-2008, 12:11 AM

ohh, I've always wanted to learn the madolin as well...

Halfa · 01-27-2008, 01:17 AM

hah. well....violin is a beautiful instrument when played correctly. when its not....
theres a whole lota instruments that fall into that category. Accordians, banjos, slide guitar, oboes, english horns, french horn, bassoon, cello, viola......

the only one i know of that sounds bad no matter what is the bagpipes.

I only really play the saxophone.

I've played a lot of the other instruments most people here have. Guitar, banjo, mandolin (one-man bluegrass band!). When I was studying to teach music I taught myself trumpet and the keys so I'd have a nice rounded woodwind/brass/string/keyboard set of experience.

But I only play the saxophone.

haha, I would normally agree, usually they annoy the hell out of me, but on this Neutral Milk Hotel song they have bagpipes, and it actually sounds pretty good.
