Wait, do maracas count?
It wouldn't be particularly difficult to animate so I don't think that would be best for the challenge.
Okay thanks.
Cool theme! I'll try to make an entry.
ANY instrument is acceptable, even Maracas. But keep in mind, the harder it is to animate, and the better it is then, you'll get more points in the judging process.
I'm still deciding what instrument to animate...
I'm thinking of doing a minifig playing a violin.
That should be interesting. Never seen a violin playing minifig before.
violin playing minifig before.

Nah, not a violin. I'm going to do a piano, so violin's open again.

Done! 
I'm uploading it today.

As long as at least one of them is playing an instrument.
As for you, ZP, good job!
Here's my entry.

It was ok... There were quite a bit of camera bumps, and there were too many shots that were played too quickly. I would have liked to see him do something else other than move his hands up and down repeatedly.
Here's my entry.

Animating someone playing an instrument requires syncing the audio with the animation. Although you did a good job on the animation bit, I can tell that one hand should be just going up and down at a steady rate (the left hand, I might add) with the rythm, while the other should be moving in tune to the more random notes.
I'm making the deadline Saturday! Hurry up, peoples!
DOUBLE POST: No more entries? 
obviously not.
Weak participation. 
Can't we just say that NXTManiac won and leave it at that?
