1)Do not drive while playing the banjo. 2)Wait half an hour after playing the oboe before going swimming. 3)Fiddlers are always right.

Don't use them as a weapon?

What do you mean, rules???

Like, maitenence and how to actually play it?
Umm, I'll try my best to answer:

If your trying to learn on how to take of your instrument, go to the closest instrument store and they should have all the tools necessary.

Now...if you're actually asking how to play an instrument, thats way different. It all depends on what you're trying to learn because each instrument has a completely different mouth posture and tone, and not to mention the keys are a big role.

Good luck with whatever you're doing :D

This isn't necessarily for instruments, but I do think it's hilarious - it's Richard Strauss' 10 Rules for a Conductor: http://www.grahamnasby.com/misc/musichum...
Number 4 is my favorite.

if you play a musical instrument (especially woodwind) DO NOT bring it in the rain

i agree, do not use them as weapons

for tubas:
pp ALWAYS equals fff
