I finally found my forum activation buried in my junk e-mail! It's been months of only reading posts, not being able to post myself. So yes, I'm new here, but I am familiar with forums and I know the thing we all hate the most is new members posting the "Hi everyone! Whats your favourite band???" topics, so I'll actually make this one worth something.

What instruments do you all play? I've played the drums for about 5 years, and I took up bass a month ago. I also plan to learn something uncommon, like harp, before I die.

I've been playing drums for about 10 and a half years (my one true passion), picked up keys a few years back, and will probably pick up guitar and/or bass in the near future.

Keyboards, drums, bass, guitar, upright bass, cello and violin.  Basically, if it's got strings in it or near it, I'll play it.  But mostly keyboards.

Guitar and viola

Although, if I could go back in time to myself when I picked up the guitar I would have said "no, pick the keys"...but then again I can always learn them anyways

well well seeing alot of drummers here and guess what i'm one of them  started out playing percussion when i was 12 but picked up drumset when i turned 15 and i've been playing close to 6-7 years now.  I tried to play acoustic guitar one time but I sucked at it real bad so thank God for drums.

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

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