Thanks sharie - thought it would be a unique way to introduce ourselves. By the way, we could start our own 'orchestra' with the instruments we play! LOL

@jjy - love latin dances! I used to be in a competition dance team called Pure Country Dancers (I can do a pretty mean cha-cha, if I do say so myself! LOL!)

LOL I used to play guitar when I was a teenager .. and some latin percussion instruments ... bongoes, drums, "furro", "tambora" and the like.

Hey PaintedPony, how about starting a thread about "What instruments do you play or used to play?" ..

Cheers,
