If you've ever been part of a band you know that a lot of the time, people's personalities tend to go hand-in-hand with their instrument. A band is not a band without a peppy flute player or overly confident percussionist. The cast of the hit T.V. show "Friends" is the perfect example of all the different personalities that occur within a band. Here is a list that paints the picture of the cast of "Friends" as an instrumental band.
1. Drums/Percussion: Joey
In some instances, it can seem that "cocky" and "drummer" are synonymous. Who else to represent that that Joey Tribbiani, actor extraordinaire. Joey has all the passion, drive and conceitedness of a percussionist.
2. Tuba: Phoebe
Tuba players are very scarce compared to their interments in a band; it's what makes them unique. Tubas are very deep just like Phoebe's train of thought. It's what makes her stand out as well; Phoebe would definitely be the tuba player.
3. Saxophone: Chandler
The saxophone itself is a very charming instrument. It is used to play music from smooth jazz all the way to hip-hop. Just like Chandler, saxophone players are charming (or try to be at least) and versatile.
4. Flute: Chandler's Old Ex, Janice
While with good intentions, Janice will remain the character with the obnoxious voice who only show's up to ruin the day. Flute players are not necessarily that but do have quite the reputation of being overly peppy. They tend to be upbeat and excited.
5. Trumpet: Monica
To keep it short and sweet: simple at a glance, but oh so complicated.
6. Clarinet: Ross
Clarinet players are no joke. We take our craft very seriously. That is why Ross Geller Ph.D. the paleontologist would be the clarinet player. The love Ross has for dinosaurs and their bones is the same as the love clarinet players have for their music.
7. French Horn: Rachel
The french horn is quite the noble instrument to play. It is also very difficult. French horn players tend to be frustrated by their instrument often. But just like Rachel, it is the life they have chosen and they wouldn't want it any other way.
