We love you because you died and resurrected to save us...

Once upon a time I was quite an active vocalist, but like any instrument if you don't practice you lose your ability to use it. Don't think I'd dare singing for fear of making children cry.
Classical-trained pianist from age 7-19. Slave-driver Asian mother made sure we practiced two hours a day, everyday (even on our birthdays and holidays), once in the morning, one after school. Burned out on classical music after a couple of semesters at Uni, as I had the rock 'n roll bug big time. I spent a brick load of cash on a professional rig, joined a band--the first of several--and spent five years in touring nightclub bands, making a modest living and having tons of fun. So yeah, I'm a pianist/leyboardist, and get a kick out of mimicking any instrument I can think of using custom-made synthesizer patches and digital samples. Jan Hammer (guitarish keyboardist) is a fave.
I haven't played in a long time, but I'll get back to it eventually. I still have many of my old keys, though I'm sure they're in need of some work at this point.
Be intent on loyalty
While others aspire to perform meritorious services
Concentrate on purity of intent
While those around you are beset by egoism
