I'm hoping someone can help me out with this one.

When I was at the grocery store tonight, someone I don't know came up to me and asked me if I still play the oboe. I have never played the oboe in my life. He must have seen me in a performance, playing my tenor recorder.

The best I could come up with was "No, I play the accordion now". I can't help thinking I missed some kind of golden opportunity for a good come-back. Anyone got a good one for that kind of situation?
