    Years ago I played clarinet, bass clarinet and contrabass clarinet. The last time I played one was about 15 years ago when my daughter was in middle school and rented one for the MS band. I could still play...just not very well. I haven't picked one up since.

    I started playing the trumpet in grade school, learned the coronet in high school. I was going through boxes of stuff I pulled out of storage and found my trumpet. I hadn't picked it up in years. I have to tune it but I haven't lost much in playing ability.

    I can play a piano but I'm not very good. It's easy to learn difficult to master.

    I also play a mean radio. One of the best that I know!

    Piano. I played from 5 yrs old to 19. Then I had to decide if I wanted to major in it in college, or drop it completely (I was either going to major in it or stop practicing 3-4 hours a day), so I dropped it.

    I still miss my piano and can still play, but I don't have any good pieces memorized anymore.

    Used to play trombone, string bass, and electric bass, it's been over 10 years though. I'm considering picking up another electric bass or an electric guitar.
