You tell us what you used to play, and what your experience with it was.
I'll go: I used to play the Cello in 5th grade, I got quite good, but when I switched to a private school that doesn't have a music program, and the fact I don't have a Cello...I can't play it.
It's a shame, because I loved playing, but I don't have 900 bucks to spend on a fullsize, (I'm pretty tall) so I'm pretty much SoL.
I'm currently working on finding an instrument to play.

I was forced to play the bongos in High School; I really didn't like it and changed my class.
I tried guitar for a bit, but didn't like that either.
The one thing I enjoyed was playing piano when I was a kid. Every time I played my pit bull at the time ('Kila') would howl.

And boy was I annoyed when I learned the viola is pretty much the buttmonkey for musicians' jokes. The reason I began playing it was so that it wouldn't sound as screechy as a regular violin when I had just started out and practiced at home. As for why I chose to begin playing that sort of instrument from the beginning, I have absolutely no freaking idea. I just wanted to play an instrument, is all. Nowadays I kind of wish I had learned to play some cool instrument like the drums or bass instead, that'd be awesome but nowadays I don't have the patience (or money) to get around and learn it.

I've been playing trombone for 3 years, (part of my music program at school), and have been starting to learn guitar (mostly bass).
I actually attend an Arts School, and I am in the music program! It's real fun.
I am below average at drumming aha!

I've heard rumors… Bramimond, one of the eight legends, devoted himself entirely to the dark. All emotion, all memory… dissolved in a river of dark. That is how he received the power to best dragons

Are you going to be like Scott Pilgrim and learn the bass riff for the battle theme from Final Fantasy?
Naw, I'm joking, I actually like bass, both double and guitar.

Heh, maybe. All I need are tabs. And that reminds me, I still need to see that movie...

...as for me, I used to play the Piano and a Harmonica. But I'd love to try them out someday again. When I get the chance, of course~

Me too
but it's a bit harder than it looks frankly, there's this particular "knock" sound (you hear it a lot in bachata) I never managed to reproduce. Other than that, mainly the pan flute, and a little bit of self taught piano at my local train station since they kindly set one there!

I majored in music performance on French Horn for a while in college, before deciding I wanted to do something else. But I think it's incredibly helpful to know some piano or guitar if you want to get a firm grasp of music theory
Percussion or drums seems like it would teach you rhythm and syncopation a lot better than anything else on a variety of instruments, but it's hard to play that stuff on your own. I feel like woodwinds, brass, guitar, piano, guitar, etc are a lot more fun to play solo stuff
The more showy instruments are the mid-high range ones that everyone knows (guitar, piano, trumpet, flute, clarinet, violin, alto sax), so they usually get the more interesting parts - especially prior to highschool/college. Alto Sax, Clarinet, and Trumpet might be the most versatile wind instruments because they have a lot of variations (bass to soprano) or in the case of trumpet, it's a pretty standard brass instrument.
At the higher level, almost every instrument gets showcased at some point, and everyone's super good so you have to compete extra hard to get fun parts at the more popular instruments. Some instruments are really tough though - like Going For Miles mentioned Viola, which rarely gets fun parts and uses a really rare clef that could make switching instruments later really difficult.
I think the only thing to be wary of at all is physical limitations to some instruments, like small hands for some stringed instruments or short reach for trombone.
but I think it's best to try out as many as you can and see what would be the most fun in the future!
Just my 2 cents!

Ignore the harmonica part. But yeah, four holed ocarina. Haven't played it in a while though. Most of my attention's been on my bass guitar lately.
