I didn't really think anyone had heard of this Darren charicter, but it was worth an ask. I play upright bass, and am in my schools adavanced orchestra, mainly becasue the two guys in intermidet are somehow more tone impaired then I am. It's sad, my ear is so bad, I can hardly tell if my bass is in tune or not because of the low freqs. I also play electric bass and guitar, mostly Metallica stuff, because I'm a crazy young person :p I cannot play piano to save my life, but I did figure out the opening riff to "Night Train" on it. Trombone and trumpet are so cool, but no one in the school band can play well enough to do them justice. Non of my friends play drums, but one guys little brother does, which is cool. Guitar is a fun insterment, you can do alot with it, and make a big noise :) If you also have a liking for cacti, which I guess because of your e-mail address, that'll be creepy. I have six cacti all over my house :D
