Musicians curse.

I'm a multi-instrumentalist and I now have 3 guitars, a bass, a banjo, two ukuleles, a sousaphone, trombone, trumpet, soprano trombone, bugle, clarinet, tenor sax, Roland keyboard, melodica, cajone, stylophone, otamatone, ocarina, concertina, and a recorder. My goal is 50 instruments by the time I'm 50.

I have a problem.

If you can play sousaphone and other various brass, you might be able to pick up the didgeridoo. The embechure is kind of similar (see also: alphorn). It's the circular breathing I'm still trying to get the hang of.

And a I picked up a hand pan drum last month for giggles. It has a lovely tone.

Edit: I'm a shameless enabler.

I have a similar problem, but what is worse, most of them I can't really claim to "play", I've just kind of fooled around with them.
