Who plays what?
How many of you TTr's play an instrument?
I play guitar, mandolin, drums, recorder, some harmonica, and the Irish Tin Whistle.

Who else has talents other than climbing hills?

Yeah OK, so I spelt "musicians" wrong..get over it.

Towndawg plays bass too. I got to jam with him a month or so ago. Dude can jam!

Bitpusher, Did you get another bass yet?

Where the hell is Stratdewd?




Some of us talked about getting a TT jam session together before but so far no one seems to be able to host it.

I play guitar and sing.

I really need to learn to play harmonica - great instrument for backpacking! I heard some sweet harp blowing on the radio today. Need to spend some time in the woodshed.

Bluegrass music rocks! I play a Flatiron Festival F, for that true BG sound, loud chop, and tone...can you say BANJO KILLER...hehehee
My other mando is a Weber Absaroka. I use it for every other kind of music I experiment with.

I'm a Bass Player. That is my instrument.

I also play guitar and can keep up a consistent simple beat on a drumkit. I sing, too, does that count?

I don't play an instrument; I'm a percussionist.

[Rim shot!]

Also sing, play guitar, and can figure out a few chords 'n' stuff on the piano.

BowlderSon is becoming an excellent piano player, and also plays hand bells.

It'll be awhile. We're in the re-forming stage. Got several new tunes in the works. The main thing now is getting a place to jam so we can get the drummer set up. Hopfully in a month that will be done.

1. I am real.
2. I am not an airhead. :P
3. My main instrument is electric bass.
4. I also play guitar and a little mandolin
5. Have played trombone and tuba in the past.
6. My current gig is in the handbell choir at church, and drumming for a Chinese lion dance troupe. (Sometimes life is stranger than fiction...)
7. I'm auditioning for a classic rock band this week. (Yes, to play bass. Wiseguys.)
8. Here's a teeny tiny picture of my toys (and pink's keys)

9. If we ever get together to jam, it will be like a bass convention. :) Anyone have an arrangement of "Freebird" for 20 basses? :lol:
