Exclusively played by insufferable cunts to make up for their lack of personality. I'd come out and defend the ukulele by saying its easy to learn and can be good for getting a handle on basic chord structures etc before moving onto the guitar, but then I also heard Chris Evans talking about how he was learning it on the radio the other day (not my choice of station) so I'll defer to your point.

I'm guessing that when you were made to play it as a child you simply held it by the bottom bar with the point facing down and struck it between what should have been the point of the triangle. Worst instrument is the bagpipes. Burn them all in a massive pyre as way of celebrating the end of corona lockdown. Edited March 27, 2020 by Lion_of_the_Midlands Bagpipes shade.

Paid Members PunkStep Posted March 27, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 27, 2020 Downvote! That's a brilliant instrument, look at it! During music class if you really couldn't be fucked or you didn't have a musical bone in your body, something like that (and the maracas and triangle) were ideal for you. At least it doesn't sound like someone hemorrhaging, unlike someone playing the bagpipes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve worked on several events in Scotland where the Red Hot Chilli Pipers (I shit you not) have played, and they are superb. They sound mint in a stadium setting. It’s the recorder, all day. The very sound send shivers down my spine, both from an audio perspective and for vivid reminders about terrible music lessons as a youngling.

Keith Houchen Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 I don’t think there is a shit instrument, just shithouses who can’t play them right. The accordion was mentioned but The Tiger Lillies and The Pogues use it excellently. Tom Waits is another but as he succinctly put it “A gentleman is someone who can play the accordion but chooses not to” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Surf Digby Posted March 27, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 27, 2020 A full 120 button accordion is seriously fucking hard to learn. The learning curve for a beginner is like the warped wall on Ninja Warrior. That's why there's so many shit accordionists. I tried and failed miserably, and I could already play piano "properly" at this point (having done exams and grades and all that stuff).

Paid Members Fatty Facesitter Posted March 27, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 27, 2020 Don’t think we’ve mentioned the Vuvuzela yet. I think even if you’ve mastered that all you’re going to get is a horrendous sound. It’s so bad it might not even be considered an instrument.

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted March 27, 2020 Moderators Share Posted March 27, 2020 Ha. But yes, it doesn't even count as any instrument, unless you count an air horn or a siren as a musical instrument as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
