There ain't much you can't do with a piano. Though the saxophone is pretty damn cool. Especially the tenor. Grin

Yeah, the sax is pretty sexy, especially when mixed with a whacked out dude like John Coltrane or Pharoh Wilson

BTW: Who else voted for Trumpet?

Drums, by far.

Probably the most stuff you could add on to an instrument to make it cooler.

The piano is a the best in that list, but I can't play a single note on it. I'm only halfway decent at the guitar, and it's my favourite.

Not enough space in the poll. Roll Eyes

That's why. Roll Eyes

Too many instruments to list anyways. Besides, if I took out one the pot and pans from the list, one of you would be complaining about that as well. Grin

Or some other instrument. Roll Eyes

I always liked the tenor sax & a well played blues harp (harmonica) but a real harp also sounds nice. In fact I like most musical instruments providing they're played well.

Changed the poll. This time, it's catagorized so that the poll reflects all instruments.

It might be better to change it to which ones don't we like. Maybe I'm odd (I knew that anyway) but the bagpipes never did much for me. Roll Eyes

As an avid collector of musical instruments, as well as a player, many years ago while passing a music shop with my eldest daughter, I spotted a set of bagpipes in the window at a bargain price....
Observing the excited expression on my face, she promptly turned to me and said....

...."Dad, If you are thinking of buying that bloody thing I promise you will never be allowed into my house ever again!"... Angry

...!

Needless to say, a set of bagpipes is not amongst my prized collection of instruments... Grin

...!

...and I am allowed to visit my daughter as often as I like... 8)...!

LOL...!

No offence to my fellow skinbashers out there but I only chose the drums because I thought I wouldn't be good enough to play a proper musical instrument. It was only after I stopped playing drums many years later that I found out I was mistaken. Tongue

PS. Something to think about. Unlike most other musical instruments, drums aren't much good on their own.

Let us drummers remember; the piano is a percussion instrument... and so is guitar, sort of.
And they never get full of spit (okay, sometimes).
