    Oh I love mandolins. My brother has one. He used to just play the electric guitar and that would piss me off because it was so loud and he'd always play whenever I was trying to sleep. But now he has an acoustic mandolin and it's so much softer and nicer that I can't help but hang around him when he's jamming.

    I play both the geetar and the keyboard, although not as regularly as I should anymore.

    I'm wanting to learn the harmonica though! Much fun!:p

    Thats awesome man, do you play Bluegrass? Over the past few years I have really been getting into it. Such phenomenal players in the genre. I could only hope to be a smidge that talented in 50 years....

    Hmm..Ive been playing (read :torturing) guitar for a couple of years now..been in 2 bands but due to some issues (read: no band chemistry) it didnt work out. Now I sort of make music with my buddy Jonas (read: I play guitar, bass, and anything that makes sounds including pots and pans and stuff, and my buddy records and then does weird stuff i dont understand on the computer..like adding beats and things like that)..Its rather fun : )

    I've been playing guitar for nearly 10 years now, but I should be better than I am. I mostly just write my own stuff anyway, I rarely learn actual songs, but I do know a few. I'm not pro as of yet, but that is what I want to do in the long run.

    Well, I started playing the sax for 3 weeks now. And I love it!! I've been playing the drums for about a year, I always get a kick out of hitting those drum skins...
    But I can't seem to find the right people to start a band with. They all play the drums too, or they live too far away from me...Oh, well.

    I play bass regular. A 5string p-bass body w/ jazz pick ups.
    I also have 2 keyboards, a vintage sax, a hormonica, a guitar, an acordian, i was into production quite a bit, mostly using sonar2xl, fruityloops, and buzzmachines(oldskool). I also have a slew of half built bent toys, most of which I'm far too lazy to doctor up; eh, ill finish'em this summer
