Yep, I play keys, I'm the guy in the red shirt and black jacket.  Biggest stage I've ever played on.  It was in a country band but it was still a lot of fun.  My keys were so loud during the sound check that they echoed off of a bridge full of rush hour traffic that was a quarter mile away.

	No, could never get me anywhere near one. It is just a hobby and I've been messing around with guitar and keyboards years. Mostly improvisation. Which reminds me, I need to take a break and re-string the old one.
	Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

	Guitar and keys are my main instruments, though I can doodle on many others.

	I'm learning guitar, I'd say I'm somewhere between a beginner and a mediocre player I can kinda fumble with keys

	I don't, i have tried, but have permanent problems in co-ordination/steadiness in general, so musical instruments are not for me. I can appreciate good playing to the skies, though!

	Used to try to play music, but found out it was distracting me from other goals that I wanted to accomplish. Might pick up playing later, but for now, I just enjoy listening to it.

	I play drums/percussion. I own a Fender Jazz Bass, but haven't picked it up and put time into learning it.. I'm not in a band though i wish i was. There aren't any good musicians that i know so i tend to just jam alone or just play at some sit-ins at my school. I'm the drummer for our school jazz band as well.

	Just curious to see what percentage of PA members like jamming from time to time.
