[QUOTE=Robert Crumb]I think the most I learned was like the opening notes to Aeris' death theme from FF VII. Nerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrd.[/QUOTE]

I remember learning the theme in Cosmo Canyon by ear and showing it off to all my friends. Gooooooood tiiiimes.

masada 08-03-2006 10:31 PM

I remember memorizing all the dialogue and spending about 3 years straight playing VII and VIII.

[QUOTE=Eliminator Jr.]I wish I could play an instrument.[/QUOTE]

Same here, I tried guitar but couldn't get the hang of it.

masada 08-03-2006 10:35 PM

Well I was playin' da fool because I basically rock at every instrument ever.

Zebra 08-03-2006 10:40 PM

[QUOTE=Zappa]The other two are trumpet and piano/keys. I am getting really good at faking it on keys in a rock'n situation, and I'm an okay trumpet player.[/QUOTE]

I got the hang of playing the piano really quickly, it was much easier then playing the guitar.

masada 08-03-2006 10:41 PM

I taught myself how to play piano, being the musical genius that I am. It is easy to learn though. Everything is at your fingertips.

pun!

sr800bkBassist 08-03-2006 10:43 PM

i can play the bassline to Midgar theme, the guitar to Red XIII's theme, and bassline to the Turk theme. i learned them all in 9th grade. kinda forgot the Red XIII one though....

i'm really lame.

Zappa 08-03-2006 10:43 PM

I taught myself to masturbate.

masada 08-03-2006 10:45 PM

Well aren't you the meat-packing entrepreneur.

Robert Crumb 08-03-2006 11:15 PM

I Taught Myself To Pray To Jesus And Purge Myself Of Unclean, Wicked Thoughtssssssss

Robert Crumb 08-03-2006 11:18 PM

Pretty much. I'm just one big fu[I]c[/I]king autodidactyl.

masada 08-03-2006 11:20 PM

Robert Crumb 08-03-2006 11:25 PM

No way, dude. Twister, maybe. Four square, probably. But not hopscotch. Not [U]never[/U], dude.

Robert Crumb 08-03-2006 11:26 PM

I'd be all like:

Hey Zappa you oughta learn yourself a saxophone :cool:

I learned in elementary school and played the whole way up to tenth grade. Then I said "screw this" and taught myself bass (with the help of a friend plus this site).

Well_Respected_Man 08-03-2006 11:41 PM

I play theremin and tea cups with pens.

masada 08-03-2006 11:43 PM

i need to convert to Crumbunism now

Zappa 08-04-2006 12:31 AM

I've always heard that clarinet is harder than saxophone. So if I get it down, I should be able to pick up other typical reeds fairly easily(?).

Daniel! 08-04-2006 12:49 AM

Clarinet is quite a bit harder than sax. Going from one register to another is so damn hard on clarinet. Good thing thing the upper register on my bass clarinet is screwed up and I can't use it anyways. I have to play pretty much everything an octave lower.

br3ad_man 08-04-2006 06:58 AM

I play guitar, bass, trombone and piano. I wouldn't consider myself good at any of them though. I want to get a harmonica. They seem cool.

Kyle the 2nd 08-04-2006 08:01 AM

I just inherited a file with every UK number one from 1953 - 2003 in it. a lot it is lame, but it's a pretty cool thing to have.

Happymeal 08-04-2006 09:23 AM

[QUOTE=Zappa]I taught myself to masturbate.[/QUOTE]

Did you learn that by ear?

ATM 08-04-2006 09:50 AM

:lol:

I played a theremin at work the other day, I want one.

biografiend 08-04-2006 10:35 AM

I play trombone :cool:

As well as alto sax (8 yrrz w00t), tenor sax, piano, and bass. Sax is really easy as far as fingerings go, where the clarinet has some really wacky ones.

ATM 08-04-2006 11:10 AM

I used to play piano. I still fool around on it quite a bit, writing melodies. I also played trumpet, baritone, and tuba. Guitar is my main instrument, though. Hopefully I get a banjo for my birthday coming up :cool:

Well_Respected_Man 08-04-2006 11:22 AM

I would still have the school banjo if they didn't realize I took it home over the summer and needed it back a few weeks in.

Saxaphone is so cool, though. I can't believe you would quit saxaphone alltogether.

Now that I'm in a band with two saxaphonists, I really appreciate the instrument more.

Matt OH! 08-04-2006 03:48 PM

they look more hair metal then scene.

Sexymuffin Vol. 2 08-04-2006 04:01 PM

they're probably not any good unless they have tablas
