I play the Piano, Snare drum, Marimba, drums, some guitar, vibes, chimes, xylophone, and orchestra bells. I'm kinda busy with piano and marimba since I'm best at those two.

mallets ftw!!!  I love how instead of just saying "percussion" everyone just lists all the different instruments(well...I do that too).

Wow you guys (and girls if there are any here) play alot of instruments. I've played keyboard for like 1 year now and I will get a digital piano very soon. I will wait some years before I start learning another instrument, I guess it's easier to learn other instruments when you know alot of music theory.

After you really learn piano. The rest are really easy, because you should be able to sight-read, know theory, timing, and coordination.

^I was about to say that too.
The 1st 3 years learning piano are the worst, but then, you'll be able to learn faster, youll dont need to see watch your hands to play, you'll get more coordination, etc...

The best intrument in the world the TUBA!! :) :) When it is played well it has the most wonderful sound. Everyone just assume all Tuba's do is play loud and low, but they can play nice peacful melodies as well.
