I'm rolling a bard for DnD and deciding which instruments are the right balance of "I can almost play them" and "would be funny", as one does.

Otomatone is of course one, but getting a useful melody is quite hard.

Concertina? I've gotten a few fun songs out of them, but my range with em is super limited.

Tin whistle? Mostly seems like a good way to get hit over the head with a tin whistle. But. That would be funny. So,

(do I dare sing? I can do pretty decent poetry on the spot, maybe spoken word? hrm)

ironiciconic,

@glassbottommeg A slam poetry bard would be fantastic.

@glassbottommeg
Ukulele? It's versatile; you can sing to it if threatened by grievous bodily harm; and you can plink out a melody with very little practice.

@jannem I do like the idea of knowing just enough ukele to strum a chord and sing (poorly) over top. You're right. Hmm.

It seems too obvious, but maybe that's why it's great.

@WhyNotZoidberg I literally can't whistle 😭

@glassbottommeg Ah.

How about that thing when you shape your cheeks and then drum on them? (yes I am trying to be obnoxious, and more to the point trying to make you create and obnoxious bard) 🤪

@worthlessbums that's not an instrument though! It's got no melodies. What could I do but bang it.
