anybody play a musical instrument?

Postby jon_jinn » Wed Apr 18, 2007 8:17 am

so, in this thread, you simply write down the musical instrument(s) that you can play (seriously play). i shall start by noting that i can play both the violin, and the piano.

"Sometimes we don't present the Gospel well enough for the non-elect to reject it."
- John MacArthur

"In the total expanse of the human life, there is not a single square inch of which Christ, who alone is sovereign, does not declare, 'That is mine'."
- Abraham Kuyper

"God the great Creator of all things doth uphold, direct, dispose, and govern all creatures, actions, and things, from the greatest even to the least, by His most wise and holy providence, according to His infallible foreknowledge and the free and immutable counsel of His own will, to the praise of the glory of His wisdom, power, justice, goodness, and mercy."
- Westminister Confession of Faith (Chapter 5, Section 1)

"The wisdom of God has found a way for the love of God to deliver sinners from the wrath of God all the while upholding the righteousness of God!!"
- John Piper

"Grace is the pleasure of God to magnify the worth of God by giving sinners the right and power to delight in God without obscuring the glory of God!"
-John Piper

"The very One from Whom we need to be saved, is the One Who has saved us."
- R.C. Sproul

"All of Christian life is ceaseless worship of God the Father, through the mediatorship of God the Son, by the indwelling power of God the Spirit, doing what God commands in Scripture, not doing what God forbids in Scripture, in culturally contextualized ways, for the furtherance of the Gospel, when both gathered for adoration, and scattered for action, in joyous response to God's glorious grace."
- Mark Driscoll

"Believers do not pray with the view of informing God about things unknown to Him, or of exciting Him to do His duty, or of urging Him as though He were reluctant. On the contrary, they pray in order that they may arouse themselves to seek Him, that they may exercise their faith in meditating on His promises, that they may relieve themselves from their anxieties by pouring them into His bosom; in a word, that they may declare that from Him alone they hope and expect, both for themselves and for others, all good things."
- Martin Luther

"I have to tell you first that I am ready to die. I have put my affairs in order. Your supreme weapon is killing. My supreme weapon is dying, because when you kill me, people all over Romania will read my books and believe on the God that I preach - even more than they do now."
- Dr. Joseph Ton, the exiled Romanian pastor (quoted by James Montgomery Boice)

"The best prayer I ever prayed had enough sin in it to condemn the whole world."
- John Bunyan

I'm actually vocals in a band I just made a thread for in Jam Session.

I also made a thread about this exact topic last year.

I played the Trombone in high school...but that was about 5-6 years ago. I can probably still play again if I put my mind to it.

I started on piano, moved to guitar, and now I'm working on the bass and vocal training. Yes, I believe the voice is an instrument.

And I totally want to meet someone who can play the Theramin.
I've got a pair of shoes (Oh Oh Oh)
Half as expensive and twice as cool (As my other shoes)
My feet are firmly held in place
Without the aid of a shoelace

It takes me three seconds to put them on
You're on your first shoe I'm already gone

One side is fuzzy
One side is prickly
Separately useless
But together, so sticky
Zippers and Buttons
Are both in-equated
Welcome to the future
Velcro's been here waiting

If I could travel back in time (To the 30's)
My Velcro shoes would blow their minds
Hearing the rip they'd think my shoes were destroyed
Then I'd refasten and they'd all be overjoyed

I would be elected as the mayor
Velcro would be worn by NBA players

One side is fuzzy
One side is prickly
Separately useless
But together, so sticky
More convenient than a nail-gun
Safer than thumbtacks
I'm completely stuck on Velcro
Cause Velcro's where it's at.

No one knows what goes on inside of your head
And everything seems to be ok.
And your the same as you've always been (your the same)
If I'd listened, would you have talked to me?

I don't wanna Let You Down,
But I can't even pick up myself.
I only wanted to make you proud,
But I don't think I can do this anymore.

When did this crowded room get so lonely?
And everyone keeps looking at me.
I'm tired (so tired) of faking my life
I'm so tired, I don't wanna feel this way.

I play the piano. Haven't done it much lately, but I'm good with some Beethoven pieces and I'm pretty good at sight-reading music.

I can do piano, but I really like Synth, and I'm just about to start my own mixing....

And I can sing (and sort of scream.....it's more like whisper-screaming)

I play the piano. I really, really like it; I'm beginning to compose my own scores to my own story ideas! I also have recorded some synth stuff, but that was all using a keyboard, so it was basically like piano.

Also, I tried guitar, and I wasn't very good. I play it a tiny bit, but not that much.

I've been playing piano since I was nine, so I'm pretty good at it, but I've always read sheet music, so I'm pretty terrible playing by ear...
I would like to learn how to play violin somtime though.

What call have I to dream of anything?
I am a wolf. Back to the world again,
And speech of fellow-brutes that once were men
Our throats can bark for slaughter: cannot sing.
