Well what do you play?

I've seen a lot of posts and what not about people who play instruments, there is even an instrument club! so I'm just wondering, what instruments to the users of Eggcave play? what's your favorite instrument?


Personally, my favorite is either the Saxophone or the Violin, I've played Violin for more than 12 years, the piano for about 7 and I tried the flute for a year but my teacher was my aunt and she only ever gave me one lesson (boo) I took up drums for a few years until I couldn't afford it anymore 😊 so, what do you all play/want to play?

I played violin for four years and clarinet for five years. I quit because of my parents. Long story. I sucked anyways.

A various assortment over the years, but the one I've stuck with the longest was the piano/keyboard.

I suck terribly [small hands is bad disadvantage ; A ; ], but I absolutely love playing my piano. Currently trying to get back into playing more often/getting better 😃

Oh, and I'm trying to learn the guitar. But my fingers, still short and stubby D:

I LOVE the saxophone. I play the common sax family: Alto, Tenor, and Bari. ^-^ I always wanted to play the flute and violin(took it for half a year).

@inkstep i've been playing piano/keyboard for about 5 years now 😃 i fail at memorizing anything on it so i always need what im playing written down 😋
i've attempted sara bareilles christmas song, umm whats it called, love is christmas (sorry forgot for a sec) but i couldnt find the proper way to play it and went by what i heard and what some people thought, i think i sorta have it right haha
i attempted guitar about 6 years ago but couldnt stand it D: i've just started trying to play it again, its rather annoying, im wanting to learn how to play something from corpse bride on it but can figure it out xD thinki may need to give up again 😋 (sorry for the long post 😊 )

I play guitar. I used to play percussion also (mostly xylophones and all the weird percussion instruments).

I also own an ocarina, a wood flute... I know a bit of keyboard... I sing mostly though.

I played the violin and the piano. And I have to say, I didn't really enjoy it. I find that the sound of piano music annoys me a little. And my violin teacher was really irresponsible, so I would often go for my lessons, and she just wouldn't show up.

I've never really thought about it before, but I guess I'm not really an instrument person. I think I'd like to play the drums, but I would probably tire of lessons fairly quickly.

I play the violin too. 12 years? You're probably amazing at it then. (: I played violin for 5 years and piano for 9 😸

I feel so lonely playing the viola, but I don't care, I am awesome! My fifth year of playing is coming up, and I've never had private lessons. And I find it so cool, that nine violas tried out for the all county orchestra, and I got third chair. And most of them had lessons. I'm curious as to what happened there!

I also play piano, I started one year ago... and I suck! I also just started the guitar.

I can play a bit of violin too, but I just can't stand the E string, so I'm just giving my little sister lessons on how to play.

I want to pick up the bass as well, since it's so cool.

//random fact// I also love to write orchestral arrangements of songs. Like, for instance, I'm currently arranging "Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites". Just don't ask why I'm doing a dubstep song... xD
