instruments any one?
« on: December 01, 2007, 09:14:40 PM »
So does any one play any instruments? I myself play Tuba, Trumpet, Guitar, and Bass. Mostly Bass nowadays though.
Don't argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

the Steel drums seem cool. Are they hard to play at all? And i was made to play the recorder in elementary school for 2 years, I know your pain.

I only play guitar, but I'm really interested in cello and the Egyptian oud.

My body.
She followed slowly, taking a long time,
as though there were some obstacle in the way;
and yet: as though, once it was overcome,
she would be beyond all walking, and would fly.

lol. Well, it's true! As a dancer, my body *is* my instrument. Arguably, it's true as a traceuse (although a n00by one) as well.

I also sing, but only sorta. Did some choir in HS and college; do karaoke for fun, tear it up in the shower and in my car.

What kind of dancing? I'm taking some dance classes right now learning how to Latin Dance and swing.

Ballet. Been doing it for about 25 years; I dance with the Madison Ballet and also serve on faculty at the School of Madison Ballet. :)
