I think I beat most of you when it comes to band geekiness (word/spelling?)

I play the piano (at home, not in the band), 1st clarinet, tenor sax (I'm not really good @ this one)

AND sing for a change LOL.

I play by most of the time (I hate sight reading), so I know many parts that aren't my own LOL. (eg alto sax that sits behind me, trumpet, etc)

too bad I'm a senior so I'll have to leave the band when I finish school in december.

o nice! haha

 

only one year? why?:blink:

 

cuz i dont wanna do it :P

 

i think my parents are home :D :D :D

I don't live in the states and there are not college bands over here. Only a really good national university orchestra but I don't think I'll be up for that next year with all the exams and so forth...

A friend of mine will become a professional cellist. I'd LOOOOVE to play the cello so much but I just don't have the time right now

well the only reason why i joined in 5th frade was because i wanted to go to disneyland or somewhere in HS, and that dream kinda dropped. i dont really have a passion for it like is seems all of you do, and i dont see me going anywhere with it in the future.

awww that really stinks!:sad: the college i will [hopefully *fingers crossed*] go to has an amazing music program, but i'm not into intense musical studies, it's just for my relaxation:bleh:

 

whenever i'm angry or sad/mad/happy i just sit at the piano, and it all goes away:wub2: but it's kinda funny, whenever someone interrupts me playing, i get really really angry:naughty:

What is it that she doesn't want to teach you, and why (if it's alright to ask)?

WOOT WOOT!!!!:naughty:

No no, no problem at all :)

Actually, I'm blind in my right eye and am short sighted and non depth perceptive in my left.

It basically means I can't see things that are a long way away.

 

But the music HOD is a ******** and made all these excuses so I couldn't learn music at our school.

 

And before you ask, NO glasses will NOT help me.

Also I don't take kindly to "How many fingers am I holding up?" (To which my usual reply is pulling the fingers at them and saying "Well how many fingers am I holding up???" Usially does the trick :D)

 

Mika-Fan1001 thanks, yeah it's interesting to watch the other girls look at a page of gobbldygook and see a tune that they can just SING off the top of their heads.

Weird :P

LOL it's actually a HE.

And just to prove what a D*Ck he really IS, he sabotaged my entrance to the yr9 talent quest, lied to my granddad when confronted and then guess whoo actually WON???

HIS DAUGHTER!

 

Well I don't really need to learn, I just thought that being so positive about music, it'd be good to learn as a subject to further my knowledge.

But I guess because of my sight (which I'm born with) my scenses are hightened and so listening to the radio since I was 2ish has taught mee to be altragood at imitation and musical mimicry.

 

Yeah there's another teacher but he only teaches yr9 and I'm yr10 so would deffinately get the HOD.

 

I don't NEED to learn but you know, it's just nice to lear :)

how long is your band camp, mine is two weeks the first week 9am-4pm and the second week 3pm-9pm

 

This one time, at band camp... (and i don't think I'll finish that snetence! :naughty:)

 

I didn't play in a band at school... our school didn't have any sort of band till i was in year 11, and it was like a rock band sort of set up...

 

 

I play in a pipe band and have been part of it since 1999...

 

 

We don't have such thing as a band in the school here....

I would love to be part of one in my school !!

I don't play any instrument, but I really really want to play something.

Maybe if we had something like a band I would started playing a long time ago.

Our schools don't have anything. ¬¬

 

I know how you feel... I wanted to play in the band at school when I was in year 5, but mum and dad couldn't afford it.. I never got a chance to join a band like that again...

 

I know of one high school that has bands... you either have to do cadets (basically you go camping and wear camoflage stuff like in the army), the pipe band or the concert band. I must admit the pipe band is weak though... they have practically no drummers (because the lst pipe tutor didn't like drummers... arrogant bastard).. though the new pipe tutor is one of the pipers in my band! (and he's quite good looking - go to the Scottish thread if you want to see pics)...

 

 

 

I noticed a lot of people play brass instruments.. any drummers?
