1. I used to play piano fairly well, but I could not sing and play at the same time...
.
.
.
.
I used to be one of two lead singers in a band and would play claves and
maracas -- but couldn't keep simple 4/4 time and sing at the same time.
.
.
.
.
I used to play guitar (bonfire with tolerant friends level) and I could
play that and actually SING -- it was heaven.
.
.
.
.
I met a surgeon in Philly who was performing in a street performers'
square on the glass harmonica (actually, his setup was simply scores
of different-sized crystal goblets filled with varying levels of
water. He was playing classical music and it was absolutely BEAUTIFUL --
the word ethereal was MORE than justified.
.
.
.
.
I'm pretty sure he was a surgeon. He had the biggest hands I had EVER
seen in my life.

3. Skin Flute.
A big one. I sit over in the bass woodwind section.

Oh, and anything with strings.

Except kites.

I fucking hate kites.

6. I've been asked to perform in a major orchestral work
I'm playing the triangle. Apparently it's crucial.
