Lyra wants to become human so she can play the trumpet.

Be serious, everyone knows the trombone is the superior instrument.

Anyway, now I'm off.

Journalism is just a gun. It's only got one bullet in it, but if you aim right, that's all you need.

She's a unicorn. Nothing's stopping her from playing a trumpet.

And even Pinkie can play a crystal flugelhorn (badly)

@Dren: Wait, wait. Turning into what?

I can play the trumpet.

If NASA ever sends anyone to the moon, we have to make sure they take Luna with them.

I'm pretty sure they've taken random bits into space at the behest of interested parties in the past, so it's certainly a feasible event.

Except that the human audience would freak out at seeing a pony.

This is what happens when you try that.

It's great for sealing the deal on property purchases though.

As a former trombone player, I am forced to concur with Drenius. Gets you better exercise too, those things weigh a ton.

Trumpet does have the advantage that it's harder to make dirty puns about, though. If I'd heard one more person at my high school make a joke about "tromboner" under the delusion it was original or funny I would probably have beaten them to death with the case.

I used to play cello. Wish I took up violin instead.

#282392 Japanese Teeth Wed, 12th Sep '12 8:18:21 PM from Meinong's jungle

Dang it, once again I feel the urge to get back to practicing piano and guitar, because I clearly actually have the time to do that.

I wish I could play guitar.

I would start a band, and we'd be called Black Velvet.

Don't any of you take that name, it's mine.

I wish I played violin.

Why?

So I can play something epic like this.

I used to play a piano as a kid. Then I got a boredom to the head. Pianos are natural fits for ponies.

Sorry, I still prefer guitars; I just like the sound better. I kill to be able to play stuff like this.

@Ed: It bored me while I was learning it too, mainly because I didn't like any of the music I was learning. Then like 3 years after I stopped practicing I stumbled over Progressive Rock and now I want to take the time to learn it again. Also, Twilight would totally be into prog, especially the technical stuff.

Violins sound so pretty, though. It sometimes just depends on your mood.
