imagine

libraries

but you rent sheet music not books

with practice rooms and public rosin and cork grease

What she says: im fine

What she means: how are pot and pan lids accurate representations of crash cymbals? first off a little kid shouldnt even be playing with their parent's cookware, its probably pretty expensive and they might damage the lids. also the lids have a little lip around the inside to properly fit on the pots and pans, so they wouldnt make a satisfactory crash anyway. it also teaches kids improper crash technique, because you never ever want to crash the cymbals with the edges touching each other, that just creates a bad-sounding air pocket. you have to do a flam-like motion with the cymbals and then open them away from you for the sound to travel outward. when will all this misrepresentation end?

Musical studying counts too, right?

The eyebrow raise/wiggle they do to say hello to someone while playing.

OKAY IT’S CAPSLOCK PSA TIME BECAUSE I AM DONE WITH THIS SHIT

YOUR CHAIR PLACEMENT DOESN’T MEAN AS MUCH AS YOU THINK IT DOES

SOMETIMES YOU CAN GET CLOSE TO A PERFECT SCORE ON YOUR AUDITION AND STILL GET SECOND TO LAST CHAIR BECAUSE THERE WERE HALF-POINT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PEOPLE

AND THAT IS 10000000% OKAY

ONE BAD AUDITION IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD AND ISN’T A VALID REASON FOR YOU TO WANT TO QUIT MUSIC

BECAUSE YOU CAN AND MOST CERTAINLY WILL IMPROVE

So my high school marching band (HHS) likes to make an H in the stands while watching other bands perform, and some other bands saw it, and cleverly hidden from us made the letters E, L, and P. I have never been so proud of band kids.
