I've been playing piano for 7 years; I've been pretty darn handsome since birth.
I've been writing novells for about 2 years; and drawing my whole life.
I also have an outstanding talent in breaking stuff; not always on purpose.

Well i'd have to say none of the above.

I really would have liked to take piano lessons though cause i think its my favorite instrument. But that's something you have to start at a young age and alas, no money means you can only play drums with a set of pans.

Yeah - you guys have skillz! -

My musical background consists of a few weeks practicing that thing you do with the comb and the wax paper (it's like a kazoo) and a book I read once... well actually it was more of a short story... In fact it was just a few color panels in the Sunday Paper but damn that Andy Capp is funny....

I had about 6 years of piano lessons, some guitar, and I always just loved music. I guess that's my experience.

5 years of alto saxophone. Plus around 15 years of screwing around on my CT-638 synthesizer keyboard. And 17 years of listening to Weird Al.

More years piano lessons than i'd like to admit, about two years on the guitar (self taught), few years percussion lessons, but i quit because the teachers were stupid. I've been learning songs on marimba that aren't written for it (Ex. bach's cello sonata). Also, handbells, recorder, kazoo, etc., three years voice, and i've been watching monty python since i was seven. I'm not ridiculously good-looking like some of you people here, so i guess i'll just sit in my corner and write emo music.

My main talent is electric guitar. Started out playing keyboard when I was 5 years old and moved on to guitars and computer music at 12. I'm self-taught.

I'm 24, so that means I've been playing guitar and making music for about 12 years.

12 years of piano. 1 year of violin, and a lot of time learning theory, and classical history. I'm one of those losers who learns all sorts of different musical forms (whether or not I use 'em is a whole different story).
