Pick a Musical Instrument via a 90s Outfit


For random quiz Friday, I was going to go with something Christmas themed. And then I realized I didn't really want to.

I found this one a while back. It's a BuzzFeed quiz.

Build A ‘90s School Outfit And We'll Guess What You Played In High School Band


It's totally silly and completely inaccurate. (It gave me "trumpet". I played the oboe.)

So, tell me... What instrument did you get? If you did play an instrument, did it get it right? If you didn't play an instrument, did it pick one you would have wanted to try?

  1. I got flute, and no, it was wrong.

    1. I took the thing three different ways, and it got nowhere near actual. But it's a BuzzFeed quiz, so we should not be surprised.

  2. I got trombone. I wasn't in any band, high school or otherwise, but I would have picked drums if I was. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

  3. Well it worked for me. Clarinet, dead on. Although some of those things I never would have worn, they were just the least-bad options.

  5. I got a Saxophone ....but I was not in band! I have always wanted to learn to play something, a guitar is what I would love to learn but so far, I have not done anything about it.

    1. If you want to learn *something*, saxophone is a good bet. It translates well to other instruments.

  6. In real life I played the trombone. I gave the instrument away as an adult after hearing what a true talent could do. I wanted some needy kid with a real gift to have an opportunity to shine. And by the way, you should back up your awesome blog posts in case the platform fails for some reason. You're a gifted writer!

  7. I got trumpet too. Closest thing I come to want to play it is my niece played trumpet through her school days (and was quite good at it :) Other niece played the flute and is a music teacher.

    1. If you picked outfits the way the actual trombonists from my high school picked outfits... Yeah, those guys were interesting...

  10. I got the flute, which I've never attempted. I home schooled, though, so my options were limited to say the least.
