What Instrument Do You Think Each Loonatic Plays?

Ayelet_Ripley · Frelengian

Wasn't there a similar thread before? The one about rock bands?

I don't really think they play anything, not all of them anyway. Maybe...maybe I can see Tech having a mild interest for composing but just as an occasional hobby. Maaaaaybe.
Lexi probably likes to sing?
As for Rev..I think he's into techno (get it? ;D), which has nothing to do with electric guitars.

As for the others..don't think they're into music at the point of creating it. They're probably just consumers.

Slam is too busy chomping on stuff most of the time, when he's not on mission (hell, he is even on mission!).
Ace is too much of a workout-aholic, I doubt he has sedentary hobbies.
As for Duck...he cannot spell. Do you really think he can read music? :P

My 2 cents. :)

Huh.

I would also say Rev plays electric guitar. I mean think of the riffs he could do.
I... don't see Duck playing an instrument.
Tech I could actually see playing piano. I'm not sure why. He seems like he'd be a really good piano man though.
Slam would probably LIKE drums the best... but I'm not sure how good he'd actually be at playing them.
I see Lexi as a singer, but I could also see her on flute.
Ace I could also see playing acoustic guitar as well as electric guitar.

Ayelet_Ripley · Frelengian

I'm curious now as to why does Rev come across as a rocker to most? =o

Rock to me is a lot...'heavy' and severe in tone and Rev is the complete opposite. While I agree that he would probably be great at playing an electric guitar, I just don't see it fitting.

Skifox · Frelengian

Hmm, I have to agree with Ayelet for the most part, that most of them aren't the musician type. I can see Tech dabbling in music a bit and maybe Rev having some skill with a guitar, but that's the limit, IMO.

It pleases me that you think Tech plays clarinet, though. ^^
...I play clarinet, for the record. ;3

Ayelet: Electric guitar isn't necessarily heavy and harsh. There are a lot of variations on 'rock' that are light, even melodic, and electric guitar fits in quite nicely in non-rock settings, as well.

Well, I'm not sure, but the former of singer of metal band Nightwish actually hated heavy metal, so I guess these things happen. However, I could equally see Rev being into fast-tempo'd hardcore rock or techno stuffs. That's just me though.

Ayelet_Ripley · Frelengian

Oh I know that, I've heard electric guitars in some pop and even new age pieces, it can actually make a really sweet and soft sound.
...but does 'melodic' and 'soft' fit Rev?

There are many genres of rock I just don't see them fitting our roadrunner.

And, maybe this is a bit more personal, but rock to me is always rather severe, even when it's melodic.

Dragon Wing · Gone

Eh. There's also plenty of non-severe rock. Blink 182, older Green Day, all sorts of hair metal bands come to mind. Oh god, Rev in a hair metal band D:

Ayelet_Ripley · Frelengian

Those are still pretty heavy sounding to me. :P

Earth Master · Loonatic

I see Rev playing the electric guitar in a hyper fashion though. That's what I think. And, if Duck could read music (Like we'd ever see that! -brick'd) I think he could play the saxaphone.

Skifox · Frelengian

I'm thinkin' a classic rock-type sound, Ayelet. Not the 80's smooth rock that most "classic rock" radio stations play, but actual 50's and 60's classic rock, and I see Rev playing just as a hobby on his own, not in any kind of organized group. The idea of him in a band just doesn't compute for me.

Earth Master: I think Duck would be better suited to a string or percussion instrument. Even considering all the cartoon rules that allow birds to talk and kiss and so forth, there's just no way that a beak can be used to play a woodwind or brass instrument. Slam fits the stereotype, but I actually think Duck is a drumset kinda guy.

Ayelet_Ripley · Frelengian

Still not fitting, imo. Actually, the type of rock you're mentioning is even less fitting than hard rock, to my eyes.
Like I said, to me Rev comes across as someone who would go only so far as to dance at the beat of techno or trance.

The only one of the 'tics that I can see with such hobby, is Tech. But even that's unlikely, since he seems to be so devoted to inventing. But I just can see him trying to compose for fun, when he feels he needs a break from all the calculating.

I say Tech is the only one who would have a true musical appreciation and could actually practice it. What instrument, you say? I believe it would be the piano. I like to relate to Tech: intelligent, skeptical, unable to convey myself and my actions correctly in a social situation. But when I play the piano, it's as if every emotion I can't grasp is somehow expressed through those keys. I think someone like Tech would be able to manifest his suppressed self beautifully through use of a piano. Imagine that serenade, huh? ^_~

I like to think of him playing one of my favorite short piano pieces (which I can play myself ^_^): Julia

fantasychick10 · Martian

Tech: Piano/gutair
Ace: electric gutair
Rev: drums
slam: nothing
Lexi: keyboard
Duck:triangle!

Why:
Tech: i see him doing piano and being good at it. The reason for the gutair was because of how he held and made the one in Muisc villian.
Ace: he just seams like the guy who will head bang to songs and stuff
ReV: i've seen my cousin, a kid at school, and a band thats is in my school play drums. You need alot of energy
salm: he would break the instrument
Lexi: Keyboards different then piano. She seems like the girl who would rock out on it.
Dcuk: he seems like the person who got stuck doing it all the time.

Akira_Cat · Your local cat

For some reason, I see Rev playing a violin. Just a random thought.

SoulessAce · An Ace that is without a soul

Yeah, I could see Tech on piano, too.

I'm not sure why, but trumpet seems fitting for Duck to me. Or the triangle.

Slam would be on the drums or trombone. More likely the drums.

Rev I could see on the violin and electric guitar.

Lexi would be flute or keyboard, too.

Ace...yeah, I can also see him as an acoustic guitar player.

=3

XtreamCrazy · BUT MY CHEESE WILL GET COLD. D8

Dude. Duck would totally play the piano. Why? Because Daffy effing played the piano. That's why.

*shrugs* I guess I like to think he has a deeper side... Piano just seems to suit him... And it'd be something he's really passionate about, but never tell anyone... Coz it's something he doesn't need/want to share.

I dunno, maybe I'm being a stupid fangirl. XD

I'd like to think of Rev as the type who could play numerous instruments... He's a smart kid, I'm sure he could pull it off.

Tech stated in the second season that he's a genius, not a moody musician. So I ignore the idea of him playing an instrument completely.

Slam... Can play the cello. Cause it'd be classical, refined and unexpected. :3

Lexi played the flute. This one time, at band camp-

Ace... Piano, I spose. But not being very "into it". I can see him being forced into piano lessons by his parents, but opting to learn guitar or drums or something in his early teens. *shrugs*

[EDIT]

Also! The idea of Duck playing the saxaphone excites me to no ends. However, it would be next to impossible with that bill of his. In fact, him playing virtually ANY sort of wind/brass instrument would be impossible... Considering you need LIPS to force sound from them.

Take the saxaphone, for example... Open your mouth and fold your bottom lip back over your teeth... That's the basic oral positioning for the sax. You also need to kind of bite the mouthpiece of a sax with your front teeth, which a duck couldn't possibly do as it doesn't HAVE teeth at the front of its bill (obviously cartoon ducks DO have teeth, just not at the very end of their bills... 'Cept for Slax and Geextah from the Xduckx).

With other intrusments like trumpets, euphoniums, trombones, French horns and whatnot, you need to purse your lips together and make a noise similar to that of a raspberry. Yeah. Ducks couldn't do that one either.

*shrugs*

That's from a logical perspective, anyway.

Mine is

Ace:Vocals/Keyboard
Me:Guitar/Vocals( I always wanted to play a guitar)
Tech:Bass
Rev:Drums(he's very perfect for drums because drummers must be fast to make the song rhythmic)

Akira_Cat · Your local cat

I am in agreement with Mizz Xtream about Duck playing the piano. Daffy did it, maybe Duck can.

I can see Tech having an appreciation of classical music but actually playing. Composing... maybe.

Again, Rev with the violin for some odd reason.

Otherwise, I'd say the others aren't musicians.
