I have one guitar and my violin. When my family is awful I practice my violin. Torture time! hehehe.

I don't think I have ever counted our guns. Mr. V is adding..... I like guns.

 

[MustangSallie]

me too

*hehehe*

 

[Jdsgibson]

Violin is the same tuning as the mandolin. Maybe I should get one for when the wife ticks me off

 

[Jdsgibson]

And me three on the guns!

When I was trying to search for people, I didn't see the little thing at the top where you can select to search for people So when I entered a name it showed nothing until I clicked on "people" See if that helps.

Wow! It finally worked, thanks!!!

Thanks bamrz! I knew there must be a technical term for it.

I actually got it out with a tiny little screw driver. I just jabbed it against the inner wall and backed it out. Good thing I don't over tighten my cartos.

I had to get one to remove a screw on my bike seat. Last time I EVER let a boyfriend wrench on my bike, he cross-threaded the dang thing.

I have a drum, a bodhran. To make it even better, it's played with Celtic music. Yeppers, bagpipe music and mom playing a drum, everyone behaves... or leaves the house!

I had a flute. Last time I played it the neighbors wanted to know who was skinning a cat.

Hence the word "had".

 

[FlyingV]

The posse band! Too funny. Mr. V calls it my "screechy". I am awful, but I keep trying.

 

[MustangSallie]

That's the spirit! Plus it's a good way to keep the household in line.

I played clarinet all through middle and high school. Not the manliest instrument but you do get to sit by all the flute players.

 

[MustangSallie]

I played from the time I was 8 until I was 16. Picking it up again after a 10 year hiatus wasn't as easy as I thought it was going to be...

 

[FlyingV]

I was the dorky kid with the french horn. The skinny kid you saw lugging an instrument case that was bigger than her. Mom picked it out. Thanks Mom.

Wow, I played clarinet from elementary through middle school. Switched to French Horn in high school.

 

[orkira]

I played the Flute as well through Middle school all the way through High School. Now I play a guitar when I feel like it. Mostly it sits in the corner till I'm annoyed with the family and I turn it on and fill the house with rock music...lol.

Too funny! And I always got teased that it was a porta-potty case. Yeah, we had some real clowns in our school.

 

[Jdsgibson]

French horn is a tough instrument. Impressive

 

[MustangSallie]

Aren't moms great? I played the flute because my sisters played flute, clarinet and violin before me. The flute was the only one my parents thought they could live with through another round of beginner practice sessions!

 

[Bamrz]

It's all in the lips!

 

[FlyingV]

I never heard that one. But it is hysterical! Thank you. *still giggling*

I was actually pretty good at it. No choice after years of practice. But I did get to have fun with it one summer. Some people were renting a cottage across the lake from us and they blared rock music until around 3 every morning. Finally my Dad had enough, told me to get the horn and get in the boat. He took me out to the middle of the lake and had me play revelry at 6am.

 

[MustangSallie]

I like your dad.

 

[orkira]

My Mother wanted me to play the flute I wanted to play the clarinet but she said no child of hers will be playing a clarinet in her house. Something to do with her sister she wouldn't tell me why only that her sister played it and I would not be playing a clarinet. She wasn't to happy when I traded the flute in after high school for my Stratocaster...lol. But I still have my guitar and it still sounds the same as the day I got it over a decade ago.
