  18. lol piccolo thats random ..coming from a clarinet player
  19. lol i would totally join (i live right in houston) but i dont have the musical background on a brass or percussion instrument to do it :/
  20. i took music theory this past year (or atleast something resembling it lol) and i was lucky to have a couple people in the music industry talk with us. One was Wayne Downey and another was Mark Higinbotham, both well known for music they've written and work they have done with schools and other music organizations (ie: corps) One thing that Mr. Higginbotham said was that he was "Very lucky" to make a living off of his music. "only about 1 out of 9 (or more i dont remember) can actually make a living off of writing music." Mr. Downey also pointed this out. He also stated that he grew up loving music (even pointing out the ipod he was carrying with him and telling us what he was listening to 5 minutes before). He said if you really like music u should follow your dream and take that path. ^both of these ppl - really cool & down to earth and respect a kid the same way they would an adult (just my 2 cents) now heres a joke.. "the money maker job and become a dentist" lol a dentist is just someone who dropped out of medical school
  21. ^ lol most of the fingerings are similar to clarinet - so it makes it easier i played my brothers 6th grade solo with little error lol (except low notes)
