French horn, for sure. You’d be surprised at just how prevalent it is in music.

Harpsichord. Below the streets of St Paul in (that) London.

If you know, you know.

LaunchesKayaks, in Current and Former (Fast) Food Service Workers - How do you handle requests like “All the fries you can give me”?
@LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world avatar

I’m not a fast food worker, but made the mistake of ordering the biggest order size of nuggets at a McDonald’s in college. I waited 30 mins to get 150 nuggets. I didn’t think I was going to get so many. I had enough to share with an entire class of mine on campus.

Did it more than once and it wasn’t bad at all. Get some food you like, some nice movies/games, a stroll around the city to see people going crazy at midnight maybe, maybe a drink at the bar and then to sleep as soon as you’re tired without having to stay awake to make other people happy… I enjoyed it when it happened…

Make your favorite food for dinner. Snack on your favorite comfort food. Play video games or watch a favorite movie. The key is to pamper yourself.

Bagpipes. One of the few instruments that can both make you cry and make you want to charge into battle.

One of my favourite Arrested Development lines is this “And, like all bagpipe music, it was hard to tell if it was good music played horribly, or horrible music played well.” :-)

Seriously though, it can sound mighty impressive when done right - living in Edinburgh though, I could do without the street corner pipers belting out Don’t Stop Believing and the like!

Get an early night, start the new year fresh.

A mandolin.

The oboe 🤌🏽💋

neidu2,

One of my more decent pieces has an oboe and a horn duet as the melody. The oboe is such a unique and beautiful sounding instrument that pairs well with many more softer instruments

Vroomfondel,

Allegedly George Bernard Shaw said this about the oboe: “An ill wind that nobody blows good.”

OP never specified what type of instrument. An Erlenmeyer flask is also an instrument. So is a stick 😂

slowd0wn, in What's your favorite instrument that really gets through to you?

Pedal Steel. First time I saw one played live was at a Bright Eyes show when I was in high school. I know they’ve been around for a long time and are prominent in country music, but watching and hearing it played in person just blew me away. I feel like the instrument conveys so much emotion in its sound
