I have been playing the Tuba for about 4 years now.[8D] Tubas are supreme. Tubas rule all. All other instruments are inferior to the Tuba. ALL HAIL THE TUBA!!!!!!!!!!![8D]

French Horn 7.5 years. Tough, tough instrument to learn, but very fun also (if you EVER get the goddam melody, damn classical music).

Thats funny, I've been playing french horn for about 8 years, but I've never really liked it that much. I've also been playing guitar for about 4 years.

I've been playing clarinet for about 6 years now. Been playing bass drum for marching band for the past 2 years or so. I can play set but don't count on me for a show [;)] Been playing guitar for about 18 months now. That's my baby. I love playing guitar, I wish I could be right now, but I've gotta clean this pig-sty of a room.
Cheers

Played trumpet for about 5-6 years kinda havn't picked it up since High School. I probably should have done DCI for at least one summer after high school but I decided against it.

Woodie Man, I also play the bari sax. I find it sounds so much cleaner than soprano, alto, and tenor. I just lve to play classic blues and jazz...sounds so good on bari.

I was playing the drums for 2 years, but then I just got pissed at my teacher! She was very strict, just couldn't play. [:(]

So now I just play for fun.

As i've said many times, i'm a bass player, both kinds. 6 years for the double bass, 3 and a half for the guitar. I play around with guitar and drums as well, although not to a standard that i feel i could perform like on the bass.

Why is it, after having seen a lot of drummers post on here (more than any other instrument), you can never find one when you need them. Damn you all, is there some kind of secret club underground where you all hide?

I'm not trying to be a jackass or something but what exactly have you guys played that is so hard or impressive?


BTW French horn pwns all because it rocks out like none other.

Suggest to your band director that you guys play Sensemaya, it was in the movie Sin City. Bizarre as butt song.
