And a mix of Zildjian/Paiste cymbals


Nice. I'm partial to Sabian cymbals; they sound crisper and sharper to my ears.

yeah, I get mistaken for her all the time, but I don't know why. I mean, yeah, she's a world class jazz singer, but that's ALL she does.

Oh you meant Image...

Yeah, I get mistaken for her fat sister all the time. Must be the goatee.

Both are lefty.

I can play drums well enough to relieve stress. Guitar? Not really, but I've wanked around plenty in my day; not a lot of people have lefty guitars just hanging around.

i mostly play guitar - a Martin D-17 (very much like the more popular D-15, but it has a varnish and is a little heavier)

i play harmonica. i'm getting better but i'm still don't feel comfortable saying "i'm a harmonica player"

i have fun with these, but play them badly: piano, drums, sax, bass

Forgot about harmonica. Havent played much lately but I've got a few--used to do it on a few songs ("Heart of Gold", "Helpless", "Running To Stand Still") when I played with Busty and Squirrgle in a covers band.

Come On T! Pick it back up and we can tour the world together entertaining young and old alike with our saucy onstage banter and flowing robes of velvet.

Oh yeah, I have a bass, some people would say I can actually play it.

Please begin to post your attacks about working the "caribbean guy" angle now.
I'm not good at it, but I like it. I'm not a very "serious" guy and I have had (as I bet many of us have) more than a few bad experiences with the "guitar guy" who drags out a guitar while camping and then makes you listen to him do Pearl Jam covers.

I got it because a couple of us had planned to be mariachis for halloween. The first song I learned was "Suspicious Minds"

I own all of them. But lost interest when I got to senior year of high school. I'm in 3rd year of college now, and I haven't played any of them for the longest time.

not a damn thing, unfortunately. I used to sing though, so maybe my voice could be considered an instrument.
