Default What other musical instruments beside CF and eKoa guitars do you play (at)?

Just wondering as a boy wondering might do. Just keeping title relevant.

Piano is my main one (noodling on a friend's in first grade got me started in music) and sax which I actually took lessons on from 4th-12th grades ..had drum sets and harmonicas too... play flute as close enough to sax just different getting a decent sound outa ... didn't start guitar till freshman in college as my roomie was in a band and sold me his acoustic guitar and a bunch of others played so got inspired.

Being of limited talent, the Native American Flute is the only other instrument that I can make sound decent. Sometimes.

My last year of high school and first two years of college, I worked at pizza restaurants.
I wore a harmonica around my neck, carried my guitar across my chest and sang as I troubadoured among the tables. A tip cup was mounted to the headstock.
I actually made good money, never went hungry and met lots of cute lonely ladies.

When I progressed to open mic night at the pubs, I added a Foot Tambourine for my left foot and a home made Foot Stomper for the right foot.
Free beer and snacks, lousy tippers and drunk women.

Yeah! Four instruments and no talent or you would have recognized my name by now.
Voice is OK but no one is going to pay to listen to it.....unless they have imbibed a snoot full of Hogs Burgundy. Matter of fact, I would not play and sing in front of anybody unless me and Slick had shared a bottle.
Hmmm, this is the first time in forever that I have had deep thought. I'm gonna celebrate. Three fingers of Hogs sounds about right. To show good manners, I'll check with Slick to see if he wants any.

From the sound of it, I've played in some of the same pubs as Braindead. It sounds to me like Braindead has had a pretty good life. The same might be said of the other participants on this forum.

I sort-of play the guitar, write and sing lyrics and, once in a while, I whistle. Didn't have a CF back then.
