[alex999]

I play Piano (7 years)

 

and I am going to attempt the Bari Sax for concert season (percussion was for marching which is now over)

 

and possibly march with the bari next year (still in consideration)

[upside down]

Bass, guitar, drum kit and piano.

[Bucket]

I have played the piano for about 12 years now. I remember I hated it at first because my parents forced it upon me, but now I really enjoy it. Music can be extremely theraputic and I am glad I have that skill.

[zeke11793]

I played the trumpet for 3 years in middle school. I'm not in band this year because I take honors classes...

[kraken613]

I play the Alto and Tennor sax in Concert Band. Alto in Jazz band. Tennor in marching band.

 

I will be playing my Alto when ourt band goes to the Kennedy Center though.

[Sunfire]

I play the oboe in my high school band. I love music!

 

I used to play the alto sax, and I also know a little flute, but not enough to sound good. I kinda know how to play the piano.

[Billy]

Ive been playin guitar for 13 years. Ive been teaching myself to play the drums for the past 2 years. Wayyyyy back in high school i played the trumpet - and i got perform on the field during the half-time show at the Gator Bowl! it was bizarre and very cheesy.

[sfotkid]

This is my axe

Ohhh Yeah..

[Tanks4me05]

I played the trumpet for 3 years in middle school. I'm not in band this year because I take honors classes...

 

 

 

My god, your school district is screwed up. Almost all of my band friends are in honors classes. (I'm in honors Global.) Heck, almost all of my "good band friends" are in Marching Band.

 

Me, in the chance I haven't replied here before, I have been playing the Tuba for about four and a half years. I had a 95 on my level 5 NYSSMA solo last year, made all county three or four times, and I'm in Marching Band. (I'm doing a level 5 solo again this year.)

[coreyml]

[Yankee cannonball]

I join the squier strat brigade. along with the sort of play guitar but suck to much to call it a talent brigade.

[Goliath513]

I played clarinet from 4th grade - 6th grade.

Saxophone in 7th grade

 

 

Now I am beginning computer synthesizer music production, so I use drum machines, synthesizers, samplers, sequencers, piano, as well as music mixing software on my computer.

[doublex98]

I play the acoustic guitar and take lessons.

[coastercrazed49]

Here is me about 1 year ago playing the drum set for a local music store group.

I was a bit shaky at first though.

 

The song is Purple Haze by Jimmy Hendrix

01 Track 1.wma

[Force 310]

Percussion, rudimentary piano skills, and if you put a harmonica in front of me I could probably get some sort of basic two-note melody going.

[kraken613]

Clarinet- I hated it! I had to play it in 6th grade!

Alto Sax- My preferred Sax.

Tenor Sax- My 2nd favorite I play it alot. About the same amount as the Alto.

Barry Sax- My least favorite Sax I only have to play it once and awhile.

Soprano Sax- I've only played it a handful of times but I liked it fine.

[youthink?]

I play only the Alto sax, and have been playing it for 4 years now. It's just me and a senior in my band that play the alto's, he's REALLY good, and my band teacher told me that I am just as good as him! (I'm a freshie.)

[CommanderLock]

I play the clarinet. I'm 3rd chair, but I don't care because there's 17 of us in the band. Small army of sorts. I play well, better than the guys next to me.

 

There is this one kid in another school in the district who has an Alto Sax spaypainted clarinet black. It was intense.

 

Our band teacher is an Alto Sax player too, and brags that his one of a set of 100 hand-made sax's, and that the factory was burned down, but when they rebuilt the factory they never got back to making more hand-made insturments because the instructions were burned also.

[generaleclectic]

Let's see...

 

Played trumpet professionally. I am now semi-retired.

Majored in French Horn in college.

 

These days I pump most of my time into 6 and 12 string acoustic guitar, pipe organ and piano.

[kraken613]

In my band I can outplay all the Saxes! I get most the solos and harder parts in Jazz and Regular band.

[VegasCoaster]

I play the trumpet and was a member of the quasi-professional Las Vegas Brass Band when I was in High School. I say quasi-professional since nobody got paid since it was not for profit, but we made CD's and a lot of the people in the band are teachers at high schools or UNLV or had played on the Strip at some point in time.

[astroworldfan1]

I just went to an Indoor Precussion tournament today. And EDW Catholic High School won! They were so good! They also had a guy named Jeff Prosperie. He acually went to EDW.Here is a video of Jeff:

 

 

-Tatum "He's Damn Good!"

[coastercrazed49]

That is really good I wish I could do a fraction of that, and I have played for four years.

[I love DW]

Wow that guy is good.

 

As for musical instruments all I can play is the baritone and trumpet. I tried to learn how to play piano on my own but I decided to give it up, maybe eventually I will try to learn again.

[SFjunkie2010]

I can play the drum set really well, but just playing a snare drum bores me and I never took the time to practice it. That guy was very good at the snare drum though
