I was the worst music trumpet player the whole time I actively played it. Never practiced when I wasn't forced to.

Guitar and piano are really easy. I recommend that everyone with two hours to spare learn them both.

Strangely as Cracked pointed out we don't really have much of an idea of what music sounded liked before the 8th cenutry and the introduction of a form of musical notation, that's a lot of music that we'll never know.
