She started playing drums when she was a kid, not sure if she ever mentioned a specific age though. She started teaching herself guitar at around age 10 or 12 (different sources have listed different ages, it's possible Avril herself doesn't remember). She also took piano lessons for 2 years, starting at age 7 I believe, so piano was the first instrument she learned to play.
She still plays all those instruments in concert, but not nearly as much as she did on Bonez Tour and TBDTpur. The last time she played piano was Stop Standing There on Black Star Tour. And then on AL Tour she played guitar on her usual songs of DTM, MHE, and He Wasn't and she played drums on Song 2.

She didn't become paralyzed No matter if she recover 100% and keep making music for the public or if she "retires", she's still able to play instruments

Because some people with Lyme disease who play instruments can't play instruments when they have Lyme disease I think.... But Avril is a very strong person ?❤️

I think it depends on how sick you have been and how long. Avril have been quite lucky, being so ill and then recovering really well over so "short" time!

I don't think she'll play guitar at SO, but we'll see.
BTW, I love that DTM performance too.

I don't think she's going to play any instruments at the SO. It'd be a nice surprise but I doubt it.

My is Don't tell me I hopp she will play Runaways on the drums again My favourite song that Avril plays guitar on is definitely Nobody's Home. I mean all the beautiful acoustic (or half acoustic) performances of the song from 2004 and 2005.

Does Avril prefer acoustic or electric guitar?

I hope Avril will play the guitar on her next tour if she can. Miss seeing her with her guitars. <3 Do you guys think she will perform next year and play the guitar on her next tour?

My favourite on guitar is Nobody's home too.But I really want to hear other songs not just He wasn't, Don't tell me, My happy ending, Nobody's home,Mobile.... I really like to hear other songs.... Playing fly on guitar would be cool:) But I don't think this will happen...
