Music is my life....right behind Beer!

Any Musicians out there? Can't think of anything better than music to go along with my beer! So I try to make my own as well. I play (try to play) guitar. I have a POS acoustic and an Epiphone SG..1966 LTD. What do you play?

I'm a drummer and vocalist. I also play bass. I haven't been in a band since 2008 and haven't toured since the summer of '07.
Yesterday the guitarist of the band I used to tour in gave me a call and said their drummer just quit. They have a tour scheduled to support an album they're about to release (which I recorded) in March. They want me to tour with them for two weeks. I'm going to call the guy today and let him know I'll do it.
I figure it'll be just long enough for me to remember both why I loved touring and why I'm glad I stopped touring over 5 years ago.

I'm a guitarist been playing for about a decade, but I'm not in a band or anything, I alos have a POS acoustic, like a hundred buck epiphone, I have 2 guitars that are working 1 that needs minor work, and 3 that need major work and are project guitars. The 2 that work are of course the 2 most expensive, Faded SG and an American special Strat. My 1 that needs minor repair is a dean something or other it's like a 200-300 dollar guitar and the locking tremelo needs some work. My project guitars are varied, one I'm gonna sell once I get it to work because I don't like it. I bought it off another guy who tried to rebuild it and he did a horrible paint job and it's not worth my effort I tried installing a locking tremelo and it didn't work. My big project guitar is painted, and installing the hardware will be easy, except that I have a floyd rose speedloader I'm putting on it. Pretty awesome pickup setup once I get it installed should be really hot. My other project I haven't started but it's an old Epi Les Paul basic that I want to throw some nice humbuckers on and use it again for ease.

I play basketball, but not very well.
I also sing, play guitar and bass, also not very well.
I fumble my way around a keyboard.
I started learning how to play drums several years ago and then stopped.
Oh, yeah, I think I can still play a trumpet.

I play a mean air guitar. I gave up that life style for a good family life.

Drummer and guitar player here. I guess I'll go first and show off the gear.

I'm a drummer, but also play guitar, bass and a little bit of piano/keyboard. Haven't played regularly in years in fact my drums are taken down right now due to lack of space after having a kid. A few friends and I used to be a "band" years ago and played some parties and a wedding.

I play guitar for a hobby. Me and some friends have a fake band named Midnight Snack. We liked the combination of connotations.

If anyone is interested, I run a monthly song writing game. There is a facebook page and a blog (where I post the songs and you can vote on them). Each month there is a specified genre and subject. I'd love to get some more participants
