I play the fiddle and the jaw harp. I used to be in a band, but I forgot the name of it.

After nine years, I'm still playing the trumpet on a semi-regular basis (more so when school starts up again and the university orchestra returns). I enjoy the range I've finally achieved on that little beast, but the slight pause in my playing habits this summer (trumpet being 2.5 hours away from me) will likely weaken my once-mighty powers. Such is life I suppose.
If forced, I can also fake it at piano and strum a few chords on the guitar. I've found that music really is an excellent creative outlet for an engineering major and it's cool to dabble around in some different things.

I play the oboe and trombone. I picked up the bass guitar for one year as a favor to the director of the jazz band as well.
Most of my concentration is on oboe at the moment though.

I can play almost any instrument, or at least i can teach myself any one over a weekend. (and i actually learn them, not just play random songs)
So far my list is piano (9 years), flute, saxes, clarinets, trombones, 2 types of organs (electric and pump), violin, percussion (looove timpani), bassoon, accordian, a little cow shaped ocarina that I found in Taiwon... i'm probably forgetting a few.
After a while you see similar fingerings between them and it gets a lot easier, plus knowing a lot of theory is helpful.
