In order of competence:
 
Guitar
Bass
Vocals
Percussion
Keyboards
Saxophone (Haven't touched one in 20 Years)
 
Here is about the only thing that I can give as an example...recorded over 10 years ago...I was in a very Satriani phase.....not perfect (I cringe in a few spots) but I was working alone with a Drum Machine (no drums were available) and a 4-track cassette....

I a so-so self-trained blues guitarist who's relearning some classical guitar and, more recently, been picking on some killer flamenco music... now that's a tough b*tch to learn

As for theory, I suck at reading while playing... but I have notions of musical theory, I took theory classes when I was a kid but didn't finish

I'm playing keyboards and singing opera.
Also, I would like to learn some drums, but I do not have time for that...

Rodrigo's brilliant and beautiful Concierto Di Aranjuez features Cor Anglais in the famous Adagio. Sublime absolutely incredibly sublime...

...anyone not familiar with this beauty watch the incredible Paco De Lucia in concert playing that very piece here:

I play bass, and a little guitar aswell every now and then. Acoustic guitar, but I have an electric aswell (I use it to make weird noises with). I might try learning some interesting woodwind instrument, such as bassoon or bass clarinet.

I'm a singer but I also play saxophone and all wind instruments and some keyboard - my father was a church organist, so I do have a bit of a thing for them! Would love to do it for a living but everyone in my town seems to want to make nu-metal, and my ker-ay-zee makeup doesn't appeal to them.

Woe! Cry

Not really as much lately, but French Horn, Trumpet, and Piano. I have also played percussion before, and dabbled with the Oboe and Violin.

Drums (really percussions of all sorts), keys, and kazoo.
