Do you wish you started learning an instrument sooner?
| Yes
| Im a grown ass man and i still dont even know how to play anything
| No musical desire
| Yes, the piano or the violin. Heck, even the kazoo
| My father is a serious musician. He got me started when I was young but I never stuck to anything. Now that he's dying, I wish I could play something with him and I truly regret never trying to share his passion.
| OH GOD YES
| On and off guitar many times, wish i would stick with it more. It is always nice to be able to play an instrument
| I would like to learn violin. But its too hard to start learning.
| Yes
| I think everyone's wanted to lay guitar or piano at least one point in their life. Or drums, in my case.
Drums are too expensive and loud though, so I never made any progress towards learning even though I think I'd really enjoy it.
| lay? play*
| Yes like when I was 9
| No but I wish I had STUCK with Piano. Like I suck now and my dad said this would happen lol
| yes because now here i am incapable of playing any musical instrument
| the benefit of learning an instrument early is mostly that you learn music theory early. at this point, you'd be better off skipping the technicalities of learning an instrument, studying music theory from a textbook instead, and making music on your computer.
| Played guitar for a while and realized everybody plays the guitar so I stopped

Relatable, i got guitar lesson for 2 years when I'm in elementary. When i am at middle school i saw lots of my mate able to play guitar (like hella lots), i quit instantly cuz it's too mainstream. Now I'm hooked by drum, too bad i didn't play it when i am younger..
| I have multiple instruments in my house and can only somewhat play the guitar
| I learnt guitar when I was 10 for like a year or two. I was really bad, didn't practice and quit. Made shitty beats using my DS for a bit and then I came back at the end of my teenaged years tho plus with piano

I know I wanted to drum after I quit guitar but my parents said no because I quit guitar. I wish I had taken music in school or gone to the music room to fuck around

Have you tried drum then? If not, then do it in music studio with ur friend and fool around. The first time i touch drumstick and play around was so fun i got hooked to drum instantly
| Ahh I've always liked drums but I'm super uncoordinated when it comes to multitasking my limbs.
One of the reasons I would've liked to pick up an instrument sooner is so I would've been more confidant in my abilities when meeting other musicians. I play the bass guitar (primarily jazz music) but I never have the guts to ask people to jam. ;(
| I've been writing and playing music for over half my life, but I've never really become what I consider "great" at any instrument I play. I've always kinda gone on my own, and music has always come to me naturally, but I seem to lack to coordination and mindset to really master anything. But maybe my medicoreness is what allows me to come up with the ideas I have.
| Been playing violin for 8 years, wish I learned the piano when I was a kid. Also wish I wasn't so lazy to go out and buy an erhu.
| I learned violin for a bit too nut never felt the drive to really commit to it.
I feel the same about piano, though. That's the ultimate instrument for composition, I think.
| It's more that i regret my choice in instruments and how I've hopped between them. Wish there was an opportunity to play drums at home, not being able to practice really hurt my interest in them as a kid.
| for years i mostly play simple stuff cuz i never got my own electric guitar to practice advance techniques with, until just a few month ago (im now much older than when i first play guitar).
but at the time i bought it, i already got like an album worth of songs recorded (none of the recording have my guitar in it).
| Of course. My parents only made me do sports but didn't take me to music school and that's a shame. I've started playing piano only when I turned 16 and now I am pretty much below average.
| i'm a musician in a few bands and i do wish i learned the instruments sooner. i would have perfect pitch by now if i did.
| It's never to late to learn. It gets a little harder when you're older, but it's never late. I know how to play over 15 instruments. Take 3 months of lessons, you'll have a good time.
| the piano, being more used to theory would've sure helped me
| I've been playing the flute for 7 years now, but I wish I learned how to play piano and violin during those 7 years.
| Yes, piano or guitar would've been good to start, even ocarina
| I hope I could learn music theory sooner. Now I m struggling to apply music theories to guitar though I never heard about them.
| I've gotten a 3 month, weekly guitar lesson that cost some when I was 11, only attended it twice, with 3 weeks of seperation.
