I play drums and rap for 3 piece original band. Kind of a funk rock hip hop deal like some beastie boys or old school chili peppers. Just played out last night in fact.

crazy_eyes ago

Awesome

JayDawgInTheHouse ago

I agree, the low end electric kits have absolutely no sensitivity. Good luck doing a double stroke on that. Some of the more expensive electric kits have better control, but you simply cannot make the same range of sounds as you can on an actual drum or cymbal.

Guitar, drums, many brass instruments, and piano. I like anything that makes noise.

I'd say I'm best at piano and drums, but I like being good at everything and not just those two. My recently favorite songs to play drums on are Fire by Jimi Hendrix, Take 5 by Dave Brubeck, and The Ocean by Led Zeppelin. And my piano preferences is anything jazz, I love improvisation. However I'm leaning how to play Dreamer by Supertramp on piano rn...

+1 for not being a political question. I love my nazi goats but sometimes I'm looking to just unwind.

JayDawgInTheHouse ago

+1 for some great songs to drum.

Guitar. Banjo.

Why do you ask? WHO DO YOU WORK FOR?!?!

Waiyu_Dudat ago

Will you settle for a dick imprint?

aria_taint ago

Keyboard. Rolland Jupiter 80 is my favorite.

Ipod

daquanikus ago

Guitar, ukulele, piano, accordion. Used to play bass, trumpet and baritone as well.

lmsanchke ago

Pretty neat line-up except the ukulele. If I wanted to play a mini-guitar I'd play a violin.

daquanikus ago

Almost every time I banged a chick back in high school and freshman year of college was cause of the uke. It works wonders man. Almost like a puppy.

Nadeshda ago

Late to the party... whoops... yes, play guitar, piano, harmonicca, sing and write lyrics... you guys rock! Love it... so nice to see a bunch of musicians here...

ArtsyLiberationz ago

True this, but without song, film, music, writing, art and other entertainment and artistic activity the human is just a soulless machine.

ArtsyLiberationz ago

Attempt to Track them down, open up a local twitter/facebook account, offer a reward. Stick posters up, keep asking around for your guitar, describe the little unique colors and scratches on your instrument...at this stage its not the getting the guitar back that matters so much now, its the fact you lost it and allowed some piece of shit to steal your guitar. If there are lots of junkies and hoodrats in your area, then you got a lot of work to do you better get to work ASAP to clean up your neighborhood. Thieves and pieces of shit exist because only our tolerance allows it, do not tolerate them even for one second.

Liberty_NYC ago

guitar, bass, and piano. Lately, I've been changing things up and messing around on fruity loops, if that counts.

ArtsyLiberationz ago

Tabla, Caravan & Jazz band https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYikKxHwc2Q

Cheesebooger ago

I do. I play geetar(think Eddie Van Halen Live Without A Net) and keyboards the best but I can play anything. My neighbors get the shit jarred off their walls a few times a week.

ArtsyLiberationz ago

That's like the brass family like a Sax, French horn or Tuba right? I guess this part of a marching band or brass band?

StillNewbie ago

Guitar here, almost daily. :)

nigger_plz ago

Acoustic guitar. Know shit load of songs from back in the day. I just do them like the record. Except Long Haired Country Boy by Charlie Daniels I sing sometimes as Long Dicked Country Boy.

Like tackling fingerstyle songs because you can't just bang out chords forever. Youtube is great for learning fingerstyle arrangements. I've even paid for a few from some of those guys.

Jewsharp is a really cool instrument. If somebody wants to learn an interesting instrument, I suggest that one. Check out some youtube videos on it.

ArtsyLiberationz ago

That's what Persian music or Armenian?

swiftpaw12 ago

Drums and guitar.

Vocals too, but singing isn't really playing an instrument.

ArtsyLiberationz ago

For me the human body counts, singing is also an instrument. Is a tap dancer not also musical?

crazy_eyes ago

Singing counts more than the skinflute

Obergruppenkraken ago

Aaaaaaaaaaand sub'd.

Obergruppenkraken ago

Drums/percussion. Been playing darn near half my life.

catfishjones ago

if you're interested. call me sometime.

Rock Band!

sore_ass_losers ago

The Goat Band! Hey everybody, lets put on a show!

MyNameIsMud ago

Ain't nothing better. I have no neighbors so on weekends we will drink beers and jam til way past midnight if we're feeling it.

carnold03 ago

Guitar and the penny whistle.

HollandDrive ago

Four chords four songs.

Tide is High. Octopus's Garden Sad Songs Amarillo By Morning.........there's more ya know

nigger_plz ago

Amarillo By Morning's violin intro fits really well on the guitar. The notes fall under your fingers if you play the D in the 10th position, the F#m in the 9th position, the G in the 7 position and the D in the 5th position or the first position. The second time around you finish on the 5th position A. Or open A which is a reach.

Like those other songs but don't play them.

HollandDrive ago

That minor makes the song. The violin is beautiful.

Basharalassad ago

I play the piano and theremin. I played the french horn for 7 years but stopped because it is so damn hard. Also I used to play the skin flute but had to stop because it hurt my back.

Chiefpacman ago

Bass

Tried guitar for years. My fingers are too fucked up. I've had a few reconstructive surgeries done on my hands. I like to think my hands work pretty good these days; just not for anything made for human hands.

MeGrimlock4 ago

Don't play an instrument but my whistling is on point

Nadeshda ago

Totally an underated skill you have there... a wonderful instrument indeed!

chryseos-geckota ago

I used to a lot, but not for years. In thinking of picking something up again.

Nadeshda ago

Just do it, 10 minutes a day is not a lot to commit to. Can't promise it will stay at 10 minutes, but atleast 10 is easy to commit to. Some days it will only be 10 minutes... and that's ok too...

crazy_eyes ago

Great stuff

anzel2002 ago

Thanks,

MyNameIsMud ago

Hell yes! In some ways it's like riding a bike.

0011011000111001 ago

Used to be in a band playing bass. Haven't played in awhile. Lead guitarist passed away 2 years ago. Good times I guess.

NeoGoat ago

1986 diesel inline 6

Redditsdead ago

Hecho plays the skin flute.

clamhurt_legbeard ago

Is that why you mod /v/bagpipes?!

catfishjones ago

I play acoustic original singer/songwriter type stuff.

Zen-Zinxe ago

Drums are fun but it's a poor choice of instrument if you're living in close proximity to others. I've got a set but haven't been able to play it in a few years because I live in an apartment.

Lemongarb ago

Guitar and bass. Sometimes piano or synth.

Riva ago

Guitar and vocals

Weedeater_Matt ago

I can play the fuck out of a weed eater.. No, Im very for real. Lets start a band.

Bridgeheadprod ago

Nice choice... dick lips

EdSnowden ago

I play my guitar a few times a month, finger drums everyday.

super_jackoff_style ago

Guitar, bass, mandolin, harmonica, sing, shitty piano (no really I suck). Played pro for years, and now just hang with aged musicians around the fucking tar pit and help people record.

Rainy-Day-Dream ago

I've been trying to pick up violin but I'm quite busy of late

ArtsyLiberationz ago

magic instrument when done right, keep going https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEq65v7f6mk

Rainy-Day-Dream ago

I plan to~

thebassdude ago

Bassist here.

Bridgeheadprod ago

What's your favourite song to play?

MrPaul ago

Your mom. Like a fiddle. HeyOOOO

killer7 ago

I play regularly but I don't practice so I don't have much skill. I sometimes play synthesizer.

Waiyu_Dudat ago

I play sax and regularly gig in a trio. I'm kind of a big deal.

JayDawgInTheHouse ago

Keep it funky man, i love jamming sax players. Such a sweet fucking sound.

ArtsyLiberationz ago

I've heard of Johnny Hodges, Stan Getz, Coltrane, Charlie Parker but never heard of you...you musn't be that big of a deal

Waiyu_Dudat ago

Well, girls throw their panties at me on the regular and my dog never stops singing along. I'd take those as good signs.

heygeorge ago

Much, although it's more irregular than I'd like. There's an old axiom about having to practice every day that I wish I stuck to.

What do you play?

heretolearn ago

skin flute, daily. ziiiiiiiiing.

crazy_eyes ago

I don't think that counts

clamhurt_legbeard ago

drum

digitalentity1497 ago

Me too.

crazy_eyes ago

Wish I knew a drummer. Besides myself

dropthedeepstate ago

Piano

CyFi ago

same, i also play the laptop (produce electronic music)

crazy_eyes ago

Cool

MyNameIsMud ago

Does drums count? Otherwise I'll fiddle around with my guitars or bass but I sit down at my set at least 1000 times a day if I'm home.

JayDawgInTheHouse ago

Fuck yeah, keep on drumming fellow drummers!

Cheesebooger ago

Drummers are not musicians. They are the pizza delivery guys.

MyNameIsMud ago

That's why I was asking

Cheesebooger ago

I'm just kidding. Guitarists should always give drummers a hard time lol

MyNameIsMud ago

And drummers should always give guitarists the right time.

Cheesebooger ago

lol What's the right time? My drummer of 24 years died on 4/20. Now who will deliver my pizza?

MyNameIsMud ago

Sorry to hear that man. Taking a bong rip in his honor. Sounds like he's got big pizza boxes to fill.

digitalentity1497 ago

Drummer here.

HarveyHarveyJones ago

Sound like me

ThirteenthZodiac ago

Drummers represent!

crazy_eyes ago

Of course drums count!
