    I play the laptop (I produce music using software and get paid handsomely for it).

    I also pay the guitar averagely, the violin badly and the piano in my dreams.

      (By paid handsomely what I really meant was I'm just happy to get paid at all)

      I was enamored with the flute when I was child because, I wanted to emulate the dream elves from Sailor Moon and The Black Dream Hole. Haha.

        Cute, it's actually not that hard to learn, but I did have trouble getting the embouchure. I initially wanted to learn the trumpet and boy am I glad I took the flute instead because the trumpet embouchure is even harder. Anyway, I learned to play the flute and no one can take that away from me. It's free entertainment and amusement. Also animals seem to like it when I play music.

        For some reason cats seem to like the flute.

    I'd love to be able to play the cello. But I'll be honest, I don't want to put in the time, effort, or money into doing so. I just think the cello is a really cool instrument. For any of you Blood+ fans, that's really where my interest in the instrument started.

      I love the cello.

      Never had a chance to play one, but I love the rich, deep quality of the sound you get from a cello compared to its smaller counterparts (violin, viola).

      The prelude from Bach's Cello Suite 1 is amazing:

    I play the guitar, bass and know how to play the drums but I don't have a drum set, so, in the literal sense, I don't play the drums. The bass is where I can rock, though.

        I have not played the sax in while. I used to like playing charlie parker sheet music. Now I just play guitar occasionally for when Im about to lose my temper or go off the deep end...which is about once a week or so.

    Yes. It is one of my fondest desires. I am currently researching musical theory and I plan to take up Violin at some point soon.

    Yes, I did. More than anything when I was younger. I still love music but my aspirations crossed over to movies.

    If I have one regret in life, it is that I have absolutely no musical talent at all. I was fortunate enough to work for some of the great 60's rock bands and even under the tutelage of quite a few incredible musicians, it was apparent to all of us that I was not destined to be one of the talented ones who made the music.

      I can relate to the pain of that. What instrument were you playing?

        Hell, I tried them all, even a sitar. I would have settled for tambourine. Anything. No timing, no understanding of keys and scales, tone deaf and I couldn't carry a one note tune in a bucket if my life depended on it.

    I am a musician and can play mostly any instrument that has keys, strings or percussion as well as singing and programming.
    I play in several bands and also do audio production and djing.
    Music take up about %50 of my life while I am awake.
