What type of instruments can you play ?
I can play the drums, Jamba, Conga's, Bongo's. And I create my own (techno/ ambient/ Acid house) music on fruity loops. (Music software)
Voice was my major at Philippine Women's University-College of Music... But we had to minor in different instruments for Theory Class and Asian Instruments... My favorites were kulintang, piano, guitar and drums...
Does playing the recorder count? I still remember how to play that from grade school.
*slinks away hoping to not get pelted with sheet music*
I don't have the ears for music. I can't tell the difference between music played on cheap cruddy speakers and those played on a good sound system. They sound identical to my ears. But give me a document to proof, or have me search for a buoy on the horizon at dusk and I'll spot error/buoy super fast.

Yes it does count :D I hate that instrument though, lol.
I remember when i was at junior school all the girls wanted to be in the recorder club so they could play in assembly along to the hymns lol
I sucked at it though, only could play londons burning
I played clarinet in middle school. Wasn't particularly good at it, and stopped shortly after. My husband is one of those people who can just pick up an instrument and start playing. I am so jealous. He lays the drums (he's awesome at it), and can play the guitar & bass fairly well. My office is littered with his musical instruments! I trip over his drums at least once a day--thinking about banishing him out to the garage or something
I played flute for 7 years, middle and high school. I was actually pretty decent, usually made the district and tri-state honor bands and made it into a couple flute choirs. I miss it sometimes. I still remember the notes and such...I doubt I'd sound that great. I'll have to get it out and see.
But...in the meantime..I do rock at drums on guitar hero
Hahaha, seriously though - Piano, Clarinet and acoustic guitar. Though I have not touched an instrument for over 15yrs, so I probably can not play anything more than the Triangle now!
I am a percussionist mainly: drumkit, timpani, xylophone. Not properly played in a few years though as they are too big / expensive to have my own.
Voice was my second instrument in school but if you don't use it you lose it (and smoking didn't help) so can't quite hit the high notes anymore but still sing okay.
I have a keyboard and guitar which I play to varying degrees of ability depending on how much I practice.
I played clarinet from 5th grade to 8th and then switched to flute and was in marching band in high school. I can play some saxophone, and peck out a tune on a piano. Currently I am taking acoustic guitar lessons and teaching myself how to play trumpet. I love learning to play new instruments.
Heh Trumpet/Cornet - Depending where it is needed, I also transpose stuff in Sibelius. I used to play a long time ago the recorder, but gave that up when I found my true musical calling
someone once told me that i was "tone deaf..." but someone else told me that it was just a matter of an "untrained ear", and that very few people are actually tone deaf...?
i don't really know, but instruments are soo not my thing.
i can play the clarinet, trumpet, and saxophone. I've been in my high school's marching band all 4 years. Some of the best moments of my life. Not doing it in college next year though.

Played clarinet for way too many years in school. I absolutely hated it and wanted to switch to percussion, but that never happened. I ended up teaching myself how to play guitar, piano, and drums.
Growing up, I played the guitar and drums. But since school, sports, and other activities kicked in- I stopped playing those instruments. So... a year ago, I picked up the ukulele and now I'm just jamming here and there with that. Ukulele FTW! I love it.
