I think I covered all the main parts. There's alto and contrabass clarinet, I know, as well as contrabassoon, bass trombone, flugelhorn and soprano sax, but I figure all those can fall into the "Other" category if there's random chance that someone plays one of them as their main instrument. ;)
Anyways, just curious if there are other current or former band geeks out there! I started on trumpet, but switched to euphonium and have never looked back. Great instrument. Played it through high school and college, and am still taking lessons and enjoying the gift of music!
Played french horn many years ago. I think I still remember the fingerings and how to read music if I absolutely had to...probably would have to work hard to get the chops back though. :P I felt I was decent with the instrument and played in a couple of school musicals once I left high school, but scheduling got in the way and I eventually stopped playing altogether.
still in band. Junior Percussionist FTW! im also in choir :3
Used to play a clarinet and played as part of a band concert once, but nothing too particularly fancy. Even had a wood clarinet bought for me (as opposed to the plastic ones the class had in reserve for when a student didn't have one). But then we moved to a different house far away, so I had to stop attending band class... and with that went the last time I ever played. I have some talent for musical instruments but no drive to pursue it alone.
HARMONICA!!! ;D
GO TRUMPETS!!!!!!!!!

Depends. Do you play it in a band? 'cause this is the band topic.
