Hey, that's pretty awesome, to teach yourself how to play piano! If I'm trying to teach myself how to play a song on the piano, I don't like it when other people are in the living room and are listening. I'm trying to play What About Now by Chris Daughtry, but it's hard! :P

Well, keep trying. What helped me is to learn the right-hand part first, then the left. But then again, I memorized it, so that may have something to do with it. If you're sight reading, then I don't know. Maybe just try it? <.>

Make sure you buy a used one as your first time kit. Drums tend to be pretty expensive. They also tend to sell with the drums, cymbals, and equipment (such as things that PROP THEM UP) separately, which hides the actual price of a full kit and lulls you into a false sense of security. That new 600 dollar* kit that seems reasonable ends up being 1500 or much, much more.
*two toms and a bass drum only. Snare, cymbals, equipment, sticks, and throne sold separately. <-- is a very, very common thing.
So yeah. Just warning you. You could get a 1500 dollar kit used for about 500, maybe, and in a good quality. Craigslist is your best option.

I don't sight-read much but I'm gonna have to because next year in advanced band, that's something I'm gonna have to do ALOT. I had to switch from alto sax to tenor sax, so I'm gonna have to learn how to play it because it's in a different key so it has different fingerings. I'm doing left hand first, only because the right hand is like the lyrics of the actual song, and that's kinda easy...

I respect your opinion; the Les Paul makes a beautiful sound to me, and I like the appeal of the sunburst. I also like it because Paul McCartney played it(he's my idol, a leftie like me) and Hirasawa Yui from the anime "K-ON" plays it too. It's got a lot of meaning for me:D
I can see what you mean though. Les Pauls are really overrated and common. I just like it:D

I dislike boring, monotonous songs where the bass just plays the base notes throughout... xD;; Also, 'm currently in a three-piece band (bass, guitar and drums) that plays -- well, anything. B)Other instruments I know are the acoustic guitar and the violin.

ttly :P If I can't find any specific music category with sheet music that matches our instrumentation, then I'll just transcribe some random piano or string music for each one... though I'd have to make up the background chords.
...hmm, now that I think about it, it wouldn't be a bad idea to make my own transcriptions of songs. I only have basic knowledge of major, minor, and diminished chords, and I don't pay attention when I'm supposed to learn more about it (now I regret it) but my piano teacher's always there for suggestions so............... *mulls it over*

I guess you could get some Irish folk music to fit your band composition. Just coming back from Dublin, I've seen that that pretty much fits any combination. Plus you have a violin player, who should have a lot of fun doing that.
The violin player in our group has only been playing for a little over a year, but I'm sure she'd welcome the challenge; I should go looking for some of that :o I suppose browsing a nearby music store would be the next step.
... Now I'm overly excited for this... I still need to figure out how many of my friends actually WANT to do this... oh boy -_-;

Listen to one album:
The Pogues' "Rum Sodomy & The Lash".
From here, listen to The Dubliners and Wolfe Tones.
From there you're free to do whatever and play. But The Pogues album is essential.

Left-handed guitars are a pain to wait for...but I finally got my Epiphone Les Paul 100 Heritage Cherry Sunburst!
Even better, it looks like Yui's guitar from K-On!, probably one of my favorite animes of all time. Definitely a bonus:P

I started playing in the school band in 4th grade or something, amazingly I still play there (I'll quit when I reach 11th grade, I think) . Also, I play in another local band (which is a lot more fun, since it doesn't consist mostly of little kids).
However, the instrument I think I'm most skilled at is easily piano. Started playing in 2005, when my parents bought me a keyboard for my birthday (hoping to motivate me to use the piano which had been collected dust many years, I guess). At first I was self-thaught, and enjoyed playing so much that I started taking lessons, which I still take. I also picked up the guitar a couple of years ago. Bought myself an acoustic guitar, taught myself the basics, and haven't progressed much since then. I mainly just use it when writing songs and backing myself when singing anyways.
Also, I'm in a band, started as bassist and vocalist, then I switched to playing keyboards (still sing though), but I play additional guitar and bass on some songs as well. We've admittedly had a couple of more or less failed gigs, but things have started looking brighter after a couple of recent line-up changes (the most recent one was amazing, and we'll start rehearsing with an additional member as soon as he returns from Italy). We have yet to find our sound completely, but I'd call us psychedelic rock. Occasionally prog. Sometimes alternative rock. Maybe metal. At least once punk.
oh god this post became quite long, didn't it.

However, I'd really love to learn a woodwind instrument like saxaphone (purely so I could play Godot's theme on it
) or maybe the oboe. There's no way that I'd be able to unless I got private lessons outside the school, but even then I doubt I'd be any good.

OT: I played flute for 2 years while I was in middle school. Quit now since I don't have enough electives to go into high school band. =/
I'm still active on the piano though; been playing 8 years on and off.

) or maybe the oboe.Pick up a flute, too, if you go for saxophone. The fingerings are nearly identical (one finger off for C, D, and F#, and only really different for Bb) in the middle range, so you can test two instruments out to see which one you like (as you may just like the embrouchre and stuff for one better than the other). Also, you can play a lot of different songs in a lot of different styles on a lot of different instruments, so you may want to reconsider picking out an entire instrument based on a single song ;)
...I personally just do not like oboes, so I won't speak much on that >_> (Flute > Oboe all the way)
I'm a rabid flautist, so if you want me to spit off a gazilion reasons why flute is better than sax I can do that. (Although I tried to not be so biased in the many body of my post)

I know, but I've always been a brass player since I was like, 9 or 10 years old... The sax and oboe are the two instruments that I would like to learn to give me experience with a different type of instrument.

Wow, you're exactly like me! I took violin lessons when I was elementary, big flop since the teacher left. Piano also in elementary, and made it all the way to Grade 7. I chose the flute first in high school band, but failed miserably, and switched to clarinet. However, leaving the clarinet in my locker caused somebody to break my lock and steal it. So, I finally switched to trumpet, which I still play today. It sits in the band room, safe and sound.

Did you fail at making the sound or the fingerings? Because your tone will get better as you keep on playing! (Since the flute doesn't have a mouthpiece, it's a lot easier to have a bad tone since you have to make your own embrouchre; the (reed(s) and) mouthpiece can't do it for you.)
