I know that Echo's a musician, and obviously H8R, but who else here plays an instrument? Woodwind, brass, skin flute, and duldrum are all acceptable.

I'm a drummer not a musician.
Tuba. Classically trained. Makes me bikey money. Yay.
Saxaphone. Love the blues.
I dink around on the axe. Been playing for about 15 years. by no means good though...
Guitar. Just a side hobby now when I'm bored, biking consumes most of my hobby related time now.
That's 'cuz you call it an axe.... Call it a jeebus smasher and you'll roxorz harder than Montrose on PCP.
So does eating your guitar make you totally metal?
It's the next logical progression in stage antics.

If you're a professional guitarist it makes you homeless. Chicks don't let guitar players sleep over if they no longer have a guitar.
guitar, drums, keys and vocals

trumpet, piano, and (a long hiatus from) composition.

I hold a Les Paul.
I started teaching myself the drums last year. Got good a few beats and play them over and over again. because I hate anything that requires practice.
Are you calling H8R a no-talent assclown?
I think it comes down to a personality thing. I don't consider it "practice" when I'm jamming, it's just fun. Usually I look at the clock eventually and say "damn, I just played for 4 hours?"
I have played the trumpet since I was in 4th grade.
I also have Ardour (Linux) at home which I think can import/export to Cubase and Protools.
I have to dig into the manual.
Can we start with a cover of Final Countdown?
I can play a mean cowbell.
No, I am saying that the reason I only know a few beats is because I hate practicing. As for a statement to H8r's talents, I've seen him on YouTube so he has to be cool.
Yeah, I don't consider that practice either. But paradiddles are ****ing practice and they ****ing suck.
Do you want to see my assclown? I did a great makeup job. I painted the clown collar bright red and it has a cheeky smile.
Do you want me to send you pictures?
I agree. Diddling should be relaxed and pleasurable.
Uh... Youtube does NOT always = cool.
It would violate ebay's terms to try to sell them. Plus some national and international laws.
True that. For a while in high school I was too cool for piano, so I took drum lessons. Going in I had this vision of me in front of a huge drumkit with 200 cymbals, up on a stage with a metal band with thousands of fans cheering wildly. Next thing I knew I was in my room with a little plastic pad going "paradiddle flamadiddle paradiddle"
I haven't done regular rudiments on a pad since 9th grade.True that. For a while in high school I was too cool for piano, so I took drum lessons.

BUT - it is actually a good foundation to start, provided someone actually teaches you correct grip, posture, form, tempo, etc.
From there you can fvck it all up.
I've been experimenting w/ traditional grip, it's fun. Very different feel to the back beat, more relaxed. Very painful to even attempt the volume I normally achieve.
