One of my goals this year is to pick up a musical instrument and learn how to play reasonably well. I haven't decided if I'm going to revisit those that I've already played, such as the piano, sax, clarinet, or guitar. I may try something new, such as the harmonica, obo, or a jaws harp.
I just need a new creative outlet. While this blog serves as one I'd like to spend my time actually creating songs like I used to instead of imitating them on Rockband while making up dirty lyrics. Sure it's fun to make a Bon Jovi song and turn it into how some heroin junkie enjoys watching German fetish porn on a portable DVD player while riding the bus, but I'd like to have a little more originality.
Regardless of what instrument I pick up and play I'll never be as cool as the kid below, and neither will you:

I have been thinking this same thing and want to pick up the piano. Not literally, ha. I have a keyboard that's been collecting dust for a few years...
You should try something completely new like the harmonica....or what about an accordian??
Nice!

I'e always wanted to play the piano and drums. {I am all about noise]
Great Johnny Cash quote.
Did you know this little girl is from Seattle? This was filmed at an event at the "Columbia City Theater", which you may know better as what it was called in the late 90's - the Lish House.

OK, I guess it's a boy (named Wesley, in fact) but my main point still stands.
