yeah, a sitar would be sweet!!! But for me, the guitar, or even the bass guitar would be sweet to learn...

I would like to play and master the piano and cello. Drum / rhythm systems as well. Music theory. And would like to elaborate on an instrument and create something new like John Cage did with the piano (prepared piano). I feel I'm an experimentalist.

Funkmaster: I guess thats why people attend universities and take music theory? I didn't know learning chords could be so hard / tricky. I wanna take up piano.

Definitely a stringed instrument, sitar is an incredible choice. I'm going to se Ravi Shankaar on Friday, I think this is his final tour. I wish I could be in an orchestra during one of bach or mozart's original performances.
Xantos, I play the didgeridoo and it's more awsome than can be described.

I really wish I was better at piano. I'm horrible w/ chords and reading music. It's very frustrating. I don't seem to be getting any better either.

well I'm sure learning the chords can't be that hard... but I mean a more deeper understanding of what the chords sound like, and all that stuff...

eh mon, make like a raspberry, ya know, like babys do with their lips. the backpressure of the didj will make for a tighter vibration thought. just try doing one of those and manipulate the tension of your lips and experiment until you get a tone. it's much easier to learn on some than others, and there are a lot of suvenier didgeridoos that don's sound too hot... dunno what yours is like. i'll let you know about circular breathing after you get some tone down.

yep, and you get that vibration and can allow spit to fly all over you like. also, most people hold the didgeridoo up to the center of their mouth, but I put it to the side a bit. i don't know why, but it allows me to control the tone manipulations better. others have agreed it is easier for them, but you just have to be serious really and experiment for a while. the key is to have fun, honestly, cause you can't play it like your a machine with a duty, you got to want to enjoy it and don't take it like a disipline.

there's a local band i have yet to see, a guy has numerous pvc pipe didgeridoos, but he modified them by placing a spring of some sort inside and plucks the spring through a hole he cut on the side... and they have a bunch of synthesizers and such. i must see them soon.

call me a faggot but the piano would be pretty fuckin' cool to know how to be good at it.
maybe the sax or trumpet, might as well toss trombone in there while were at it. guitar/bass.
i have three goals in life (all of them pretty fuckin' trivial), to: own a set of gaolie pads (that way i can know what the goalie is thinkin' when i play out), own all the cd's i used to have and ever wanted to have and owning a drum set. everthing else is secondary to those three goals. then of course there is third and fourth and fifth etc etc.

I play guitar, and I used to love it... I'm pretty good at it. But discovering electronic music has really lessened the appeal of guitars and that kind of thing... just seems to limiting.
I would fucking LOVE to be able to play piano, just master it... but I don't have the patience.
