On the topic of picillos, I don't mind it. My best friend owns a picallo, even if she's not allowed to play it until she achives first chair in high school. We're still middle schoolers, and I happen to be first chair, it's sort of impossible at the moment.

Re: Instruments?
That's amazing. Ours spiked in numbers the year that they made a trip to Philidalphia to march in a parade on Thanksgiving, but it made a major drop afterward. People just like making big trips I guess. ^-^

Re: Instruments?
I started piano at age four-ish, flute in fifth grade, and piccolo and trumpet last fall. People are always amazed at this, but..no. Seeing as picc is just a mini-flute and I suck at trumpet.

Re: Instruments?
I play trombone for school and i used to play the violin, but I hated it cause my teacher made me stand up and play it so I quit
That's when I started guitar because it's like a violin but you can sit
