LMAO at Zamfir! 
I haven't thought about him since his commercials disappeared.
I couldn't carry a tune in a bucket or I would have played the alto sax. My dear departed sister used to play one and I think it is one of the most beautiful of the woodwind instruments.

Wire Weasel plays the Swinette, well he stretches 3 hairs from a horse's tail across this pigs rear and blows hard and there you have your Swinette.
No I hear it's always warmed up and ready to "blow"
That's a very soothing instrument.

Looks like you've done well.
Don't recognize many on the list except for a few, like Little Jimmy Dickens and Jett Williams (Old Hanks kid).
Can you pay the bills with your very skillful talent? I hope so. You sure deserve that.
Never too late, I quit for over 25 years and am so glad I'm trying again.
I was OTR and bored, so I bought a cheapie guitar at a pawn shop in Dodge City, KS to pass the time.
A few years later (now) I'm better than I ever was (played lead in a rock band as a teen).
The intarweb resources help immensely.
Hey, I probably have seen you on the Opry and didn't know it (I prefer the Ryman to the Opry House, but man, those pews!)
Very cool!
I've been playing guitar, mandolin, bouzouki, tenor banjo, and Irish button accordion for a long time now. Managed to win 1st place Solo Mandolin in the Fleadh Cheoil in the US in 2006 and competed in the All Ireland that year, and still play in a couple of local folk bands.
You have to love that stuff to play it, it's not easy and there's no market for it in this part of the country.
