So, this was spawned from...I don't entirely know what. Anyway, here's the deal:

1. Post as your character
2. People answer and say what musical instrument they think "fits" or "is" that character.
3. People explain why!


And I'm going to answer my own thing with people I know well enoug to do this with.

BILLY CRANSTON -- Acoustic guitar. It's both calm and happy all at once. Versatile and steady, with the ability to shift mood in a matter of seconds. And all that is wound up with solidity.

GOLIATH -- Cello. Deep, resonating and often dark beneath the light. Sometimes somber without being sullen. Old, traditional and time-honoured.

JAMIE MCCRIMMON -- The bodhran and spoons. Yes, spoons are instruments. Both of Celtic origin, they produce a thundering roar both merry and fierce. An embodiment of the Celtic hills.

TONY TONY CHOPPER -- Pan pipes. Jovial, playful and sometimes flighty like the satyr they were named for.
