    I'm with Bubba as far as the stereo is concerned.

    I dance at the coffee shop (no need for playing an instrument), listen to friends at various venues play their stuff. Hum a lot, but as far as anything else no.

    Seriously I have just recently started looking into learning the harp as Brian Boru is sort of an inspiration for me, and he was a harpist.

    I play guitar, harmonica and sing. I have been known to get out
    on occasion and lead a 5 piece blues band. Have never done so
    in a kilt...............yet.
    Have not been playing much of late though.

    What musical instruments do I play?

    Piano, guitar, trumpet, saxophone, recorder, pipe organ. I also sing.

    I've done a lot of music for my church as well as singing with a symphonic chorus with either the Minnesota Orchestra or the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra. I also worked at our local Renaissance Faire for a few years as a musician. I used one of my guitars and sang, or played one of my recorders. I decided to wear a great kilt during the "Scottish Fair" weekend and just kept on wearing it from then on.

    I also started learning the pipes about 8 years ago, but ran out of time. I still have my chanter, though, and pull it out now and then.

    Since last fall I have been working on the Ross electronic practice chanter/bagpipe. I hope to move up to the Highland bagpipes soon.
