    Default Musicians!

    I was wondering how many here play a musical instrument. I play the piano and really enjoy it. Hopefully I put up enough options!

    Hey! Where's the harp option????

    I play piano, organ, violin and Celtic harp. I sight-read and play by ear both, so I have a blast with music. In my "spare" time I'm a piano teacher. Right now I've got about 25 students.

    I play piano and violin. Piano I can play pretty well. Violin......its a little touch and go! Sometimes it resembles screeching cats!

    For all of you Jersey/Springsteen fans.......I got my '52 Tele signed by Bruce back in 1999. I switch out pickguards on her when I play.

    I play piano in a couple of "big band" jazz bands, and I also go to the local Japanese karaoke bar a couple times a week to sing old songs in Japanese. (No, I'm not Asian at all, I'm Irish/German/French Canadian/Scot/Welsh/Pennsylvania Dutch. )
