Anyone play?

I'm currently learning the fiddle (ahem, the Tetris theme right now as I take a break to type this), and I'm just slightly curious to know if anyone knows/or learning how to play an instrument also. Hard to learn, fun to learn, easy to learn, which ever. Stories? I'm learning guitar on the side, but I personally find guitar/electric bass the norm to learn these days anyways. I also find searching for sheet music is really hard on the webz, it's all guitar tabs!! (GRR!!) So maybe some help if you got any wise words to share :)

I play the stereo.... and that’s about it anymore.

A few years ago I could play (twinkle twinkle little star, style) the violin, viola, trumpet, and baritone.

I've played viola for about 10 years, it was a pain to learn but it's a lot of fun!

I just bought my good buddy a banjo for Christmas. A used five string used, in great condition too. It was such a rare find a 100 bucks! Then I snapped her C string thinking it was a B (harhar drunken tuning)

i've been playing Drums & orchestral percussion fro about ten years now, and hopefully going into university the fall in a music program at my desired school. and i've bee nplaying bas for 6 years now. and guitar for 3! good fun all these instruments are, but i've just started taking piano lessons so i'm wicked excited for that!

as for finding sheet music check out http://imslp.org/ it's a wiki site but you can find a whole lot of sheet music there on specific instruments and from songs too.

a lot of obscure orchestral stuff but yeah fun to take a gander at if you please.
