I play trombone. Although I've learned today that I was taught pretty much completely wrong how to play a brass instrument and pretty much have to learn tonguing, something I've actually not really done at all. >_>
I played the trumpet up until junior year of high school. I was pretty bad, and I never practiced because I really just didn't care for the instrument. It just was never fun to play.
I still play the bass guitar, though. I've been playing since sophomore year of h.s. I'm not in a band or anything, but my friends and I get together and jam all the time. My roommate and I are in the middle of sound-proofing our basement so we can use it as a practice space.
I want to play the violin and the piano. I've learned a little bit of both. Mostly piano. Heebs' g-pa was teaching me the violin for a while, but I'm feeble, so I found it hard to learn to play and hold the damn thing at the same time. Plus all that noise right by my ear irritated me to no end. I might just have to live with loving violin (and fiddle) music.
my grandpa is a kick-ass guitar player, and tried to teach me to play acoustic... but my fingers lack the dexterity required, and i never learned to play anything more complicated than Red River Valley >.>

I play trumpet too, but I haven't played since high school. I loved it though, but we did a lot of jazz music so that's probably why. I started playing guitar a couple months ago and I'm picking it up pretty easily, I have super long hands/fingers so that helps xD
i play some guitar, but mainly tabs, can't read music, and personally i like songs like Hallelujah by Rufus Wainwright , and Swing Life Away by Rise Against, and some oldies like U2's Bloody Sunday, if anyone else wants some chords or tabs i can probly get them for you.
I would like to play Violin or Cello. I learned the flute after I got bored of my Beginner's guitar class during my freshmen year in high school. Did it with braces. I wanted to be like Ron Burgundy, but sadly classical instruments usually don't come cheap at all. I'll stick to my geetar at the moment.
Im buying a Banjo. And will learn to play that. So other then that, nope. although I did play the recorder(horribly, both cause I hated the damn thing, and cause I hated my music teacher)in 5th grade
