I have played the piano since I was 3. I don't excel, sometimes I wonder if I'm ever getting better, but at least I'm somehow matching the bar that each grade demands. I do the classical stuff, scales, arpeggios, classical pieces, with a few modern ones sprinkled in.
Currently I am in grade 6, which has the best songs I've seen in Conservatory Canada. Complicated stuff.
I've also done music theory, recently did my grade 3 exam for theory. Still haven't gotten my grade. It was really tough, hoping I passed.

Oh come on, AS! Have you tried piano? You don't start off as a Mozart, music takes commitment.

I have been playing acoustic guitar for almost 5 months now, so I believe I can now add that to my instrument repot ore. I hope to learn to play electric guitar, drums, flute, violin, and anything else I can find in the years to come. But for now, piano, guitar, and vocals is it.

I play guitar and I mess around a little on the piano (I picked out Fur Elise ).

O.O I did not know of this before. Neither do I. Do you enjoy listening to music, or are you like me in that you have no musical tastes either?

I can relate with this... I started piano over 5 years ago and I'm now on level 2... not exactly a "natural" here. =P

I can play French horn, piano, and handbells. I can also peck on the xylophone a bit, and I do well with a toy accordion. (I have yet to pick up a real one, though.)
Do you think you know music? Guess the hints at the end of each of my posts in A Musical Journey. (The name's a link. You can click it.)

Not long enough. I just didn't feel like I wanted to play the guitar anymore.. *shrugs*

I don't know exactly what you mean.. I can tell you that I rarely like two songs from the same artist/band. I do enjoy Switchfoot and NeedtoBreathe songs. :D
