Good evening folks!
I was pondering about different lyrics and such in another thread when it occurred to me that we all listen to music in our own way. Some listeners are focused on lyrics, some on the music and some on the intricacies of the interplay of the whole…
I play guitar, but have of course learned to play recorder in elementary school, then trombone in junior high, before picking up a guitar in high school.
I would love to learn how to play keyboard in all its iterations (piano, organ, etc) but that’s for another time.
I want to know what you play. What makes you happy? Heavy Metal? Classical? Country?

I also play guitar, and I'm dabbling with ukulele. I am learning to play "Pennies from Heaven" on the Uke, and also trying to learn "Toxicity" by SOAD for the Uke. I took classical lessons more than 40 years ago, and that has done more for my rock playing than anything. I like playing jazz, classical, rock, and ROCK!! I think I will someday soon do a rock concert for the benefit of the local rest home. Rock music is not so fond here where I live in the Caribbean, but there are those who will come out to watch the burn.

I am incredible at playing the stereo. I learned at an early age, and everyone who hears me play says it is the finest they've ever heard!
Actually, I can't read music, but can play the recorder (we called it a flut-a-phone in elementary school,) can sit at a keyboard and after a few minutes Messing around, can play some simple tunes, same with guitar, but I am (was) best with drums. I am uncoordinated enough to be able to use all 4 appendages separately, which a percussionist needs.
Oh, I am working on harmonica, but it is harder than it looks, especially when the wife threatens me with a frying pan to the head!

I don't play anything. I can't even read music. I've tried to learn how, but it's totally not in my capabilities to do so. I don't listen to the radio or anything while driving. I like it quiet.
