Bugcos’ Retail Therapy in “Expensive Day” appears to have inspired loads of TrucknetUK drummers to come out of hiding: :sunglasses:

It made me wonder - what musical instrument do you play, if any?

I guess I should start. I can probably manage “Three Blind Mice” on the recorder and violin from when I was forced to play them a thousand years ago and a few folk guitar chords - sadly that’s about it! :blush:

I can sing, though. :smiley:

So what about everyone else?

Are we a musically-talented bunch, or tragically tone-deaf? :open_mouth:

Trombone, Trumpet, Tuba, in fact anything brass except french horn,
Piano. Harpsichord, Organ, Keyboards.
Guitar, Bass guitar, Double Bass, Mandolin, Harmonica/Mouth organ,
Recorder, did a lot of singing before my voice broke, but nothing as a soloist since!
Also experienced midi programmer and arranger and conductor. Occasional composer.

BUT - totally stuffed with a drum kit; always managed to miss out on it somehow.

But it was my job for 25 years :wink:

I only know two tunes - one is God Save the Queen and the other one isn’t :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Yup, that’s me, tragically misunderstood! :laughing: Bad, bad, Scotchbaz! :smiley:

It sounds as though we have some proper musicians here - cool! :sunglasses:

Perhaps the next TrucknetUK “Doo” should be a jamming session?!

Used to play brass ; French horn and trumpet at school, then joined the Army and was 2nd cornet then tuba player in R.E.M.E. junior band.

Did piano up to grade 3 and a bit of organ at school, now have a Technics keyboard gathering dust which gets dragged out occasionally.

Sang in school choir, occasional backing vocals for friends bands and have done karaoke for years.

Can just about read a treble line, and fluffed O-level music. :blush:

Mate of mine plays accordion. He stopped for a pint after a gig, then remembered he’d left the accordion on show on the back seat. He rushed out to move it to the boot, but too late. Some barsteward had smashed the back window and thrown another two in :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
