Drums (Set)
MWH can have various percussion instruments.
 
Only experience I have are a few "bands" I was in with MWH during HS.
One of our bands were Nixon Jabfest but it was doomed because one kid sucked...

haHA Nixon Jabfest...

Ok, sometime today I'll alter the first post where the roster is and add the band members and their instrumentation when more people join.

I can take whatever we don't have, but drums, but luckily we've already got a drummer and an auxiliary percussion man.

alright so the rhythm section is in decent shape... now for a singer, guitarist or two, keyboards, woodwinds maybe, maybe some strings

do any of you guys sing very well (I'm a technically good singer and I can growl like the cookie monster, but I'm a low baritone, so my voice doesn't carry very well)

I can't sing worth sh*t; I'm just about tone-deaf, and I can't even attempt to sing whilst playing. 

How about you cover woodwinds; it's nice to have a player of such diverse wind instruments, because then you get a whole spectrum of sounds out of a single musician.

yeah, I'd be glad to cover woodwinds, but I just don't want to add too much folky sound from a particular region, because we might sound like we're playing world music.

So, I'd be glad to cover flute/sax/oboe/ with occasional Andean pipes or even Japanese Shakuhachi;  I could even get my viola/violin skills up if we need it, but if more people don't join I might have to play keyboards or guitar

hmmm... we're smart, maybe we could try to make one out of an autoharp or psaltry zither, bass and guitar pickups (it might actually sound good with electric cello pickups)... it might be ugly as sin, but it would be Cool

Unfortunately, that won't fit in our sound.  My vision includes an acoustic whatever, but not an electric one.
