Not these days, but a long time ago......

piano, tuba, a couple of different types of cornet, bugle, trumpet, flugelwotsit, euphonium, tenor and bass trom.

messed about with clarinet and sax.

just the usual stuff

then I got distracted by boobs and wheels

Did some pub gigs with guitar about 20 years ago. Started learning saxophone a couple of years ago and joined a local community band. Hoping to do some jazz trio stuff in a couple of years if I get good enough.

Kazoo and if someone busts out the old recorder (public school issue) I'll rip some tunes on that. No band needed but am happy to join one.

I am hoping the only possible definition is a camp where lots of kids with musical talent [and quite a few with absolutely none] go to learn more about music.

"Spare time activities" involved chasing skirts.

[our band camp was held across the road from Lake Walyungup - where the Sandgropers land-sailing club are based.]

if there is another definition of "band camp" I'm not sure I want to know....

I can carry a tune on a juice harp.

I am really good with "Momma don't allow...............!!

Reckon I could do the vocals on Suzie Q pretty good too but don't ask me to pick up an instrument or bang on one beyond a tambourine.
