I have played a bit in the past. In High school I won a full scholarship to a university to play the trumpet. I didn't go because I was sick of playing the trumpet. Why? Cause I can't hardly sing along and play the trumpet at the same time.

I am trying to learn to play the mandolin. My wife is trying to learn to play the guitar. Her and my brother both know a little about playing the fiddle. I try to play the harmonica but it seems mine took lessons from Rocky's second one and didn't listen all that well. I tried the fiddle, but its hard to play a tune on just one string. My wife asked my why I play it on just one string. I told her it was because we just had one bow.

Anyway other than beatin on a drumb, playin the jews harp, or playin a washboard or the spoons thats about all I know. Come to think of it I need ta get me a new washboard to play. My great grandfather taught me to play that as a kid.

When I was a kid my great grandfather and scores of relatives would get together under the big oak tree in the front yard and play music just about every day.

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
