SM thinks playing / practicing a musical instrument is more fun socially, than independently and wants to start a group music playing time in a Google Hangout in group video chat, possibly Wednesdays at 9 pm PT, where everyone plays their own instrument, but can turn on this instrument or person, or that one, to play together, if so desired ...
