Okies, mah turn
I heard this one:
Whats a musician without his girlfriend?? (vise versa for girls)
Homeless.
"85% of an orchestra's conductor's time is spent quieting the brass section in a professional orchestra-Most of them were in high school and college marching band."-A professor I was listening to-He was lecturing the science of music.
"I believe many musicians are quite like their instrument of choice-Oboeist, for example, must tense up in order to blow very hard in order to produce a sound which, in turn, produces an almost unpleasant wailing through the instrument-actually in tune(sadly). Most every oboeist I have performed with, has acted quite the same way." - same guy
"While, with the trumpets, they probably chose the trumpet because it is high and loud. Yes, very VERY loud." - same guy (me: WH0000T)
The difficulty of marching low brass is not the music-NO
It is marching the instrument thats the challenge.
Whats the one thing all trumpet players have in common?
Their ego is bigger than their ability.
(Sad, but true)
"What measure was that rest, clarinets?"
"What rest?"
"AGAIN, TRUMPETS, DO IT RIGHT THIS TIME."
(I hear that little phrase every bloody day)
"What measure was your solo, first chair?"
"Solo?"
Ill stop before I piss off EVERY section.
("I can do better!"
"No you can't-You're a first year")
