- Guitar
- I'd get a lot more practice if I weren't so bad at tuning one.
- I heard once that this is how George Harrison got in the Beatles - he knew how to tune a guitar.
- Seriously, as soon as I get within a few millimeters of a tuning peg, I go tone deaf.
- Was in a guitar class in high school - first day of class, I figured out the "Smoke on the Water" riff. Before the day was out, half the class knew it as well.
- I'd get a lot more practice if I weren't so bad at tuning one.
- Piano/Keyboard
- Harmonica
- I bugged my dad for one for my eleventh birthday, so he got me one... but it had twelve holes and the book he got me for it had ten holes so I never learned a damn thing.
- Recorder
- Had a nice wooden one as a kid, so I didn't get burnt out on them the way people usually do - i.e. in a screeching, squawking classroom of kids armed with plastic recorders. Never learned how to play it though.
- Also, the second Doctor.
- Drums
- No rhythm.
- Banjo
- Ended up learning to play the guitar (in a loose definition) as a child instead of the banjo - the neck of a banjo was too damn long for a little girl, but we had a half-size guitar...
- I read on the Internet once that there was some song Cat Stevens wanted to put a banjo in, but it sounded too country so they dropped it. Naturally, this is the song I'd like to learn first. Pretty sure it was "Oh Very Young".
- Tenor banjo is okay too
- Mandolin
- I'd like to play "Tribute" by Tenacious D. In tribute to a tribute to Tribute, oddly.
- Cello
- I'll see you in hell, Pachelbel.
- This inclination is entirely Douglas Adams' fault.
- Sitar
- Like that's ever happening
- Theremin
- Even more unlikely
- Electric versions of any of the above
- ...okay, I'm pretty sure electric harmonicas don't exist.
- I also wish I could sing.
- Also wish I could do mashups, remixes, et al.
- And dance. I also can't dance.
