Musicians

[Norham Waterpaw]

That's wonderful! I just... Don't know what that is...

Lemme' guess, cause this is a sort of educated guess...

*prepare for imminent failure*

Is it a wooden flute thingy?

[BlueRose]

I play the Blockflöte

Uhh, isn't that just a fancy name for a recorder?

[The Shade]

I'm attempting to learn the electric guitar, but it's slow going by yourself. I'm considering lessons.

Do you own a PS3 or an Xbox?

No, why, guitar hero?

I was gonna suggest Rocksmith. It's helping me quite a lot with learning bass techniques. I'm learning double stops at the moment.

Hmm, would look into it if I had a PS or Xbox...Sadly neither.

The German name, yes. I learned it from my German Aunt.

  Aha!  I knew it!  (As soon as I saw the 'flöte' part of the word, I went, "Hmm, that looks kinda like flute...  But why wouldn't he just call it flute?"  And from there on I tried to figure out what it was.  I kinda came to the conclusion that it was probably some kind of whistle or recorder, and apparently I was correct!  )

Kewl. (Well, German is fancy, ok?)

[Tam and Martin]

Woah, cool.  I like the violin (but I still don't understand how you people can play those tiny things...)  I play Double Bass in my orchestra. I'm Third Chair (out of three people).

Fist pump, I'm third chair out of three people in the orchestra I'm in too

I'm also I'm in my high school band.

  As am I.  Third clarinet out of three, as well as the only girl, the youngest, and the newest. 

LOL!
I am the only boy second violinist as well as the youngest and the newest 

[The Skarzs]

Congrats.

My mom calls me "Mister Sound Effects". I can replicate some interesting sounds and voices with my mouth.

I'm the newest but not the youngest. First chair is younger, second chair older. Still a lot of fun and excitement and as Norham said, in chair testing you've got nothing to worry about At least (I think), I'm section leader in my band, though I'm also tied for the oldest and it's out of 5 people so it's not an amazing accomplishment. Still glad to be there though!!

@Scar: Like what?

[The Skarzs]

Like a windstorm (strange), a frog, imitating voices like Bill Cosby, airplane. . . Just a bit odd, really. I can make really strange voices as well.

[Norham Waterpaw]

Sonny, Bill Cosby is a whole different story.

[M.A.R.T.I.N(band)offical]

I play a electric guitar and acoustic guitar.

[Rainshadow]

  Okay, so this DOES have something to do with music, as it happened in band class yesterday, so I have a fun story:

  Advanced Band is the second to last band of the day at my music program, and I sat down with my clarinet in the front row, as usual, waiting for my teacher to come in.  When she did, she noted how there were very few band members that day.  I hadn't noticed that until she pointed it out, but after a quick headcount, there was just over half of the band there.  The rest were gone.

  My teacher pulled out a "new" piece (one that we played last year and are getting this year so we can have the less experienced bands listen to us in awe at mass band), called Fiera Winds, and we played through that (surprisingly, most of us remembered our parts, even though it's been a year.) twice.  After that, my teacher glanced through her scores and went, "Y'know, since every song we have is gonna sound really bad with half a band, why don't we play a game?"

  So, yes, almost all of the Advanced Band time was spent playing The Name Game:  Empires.  (I was Carly Rae Jepsen, and my sister, who was Nicholas Cage, guessed me quickly.  Batman won.  )

LOL! That is awesome! Wish my conductor would do that!

[Norham Waterpaw]

Our conductor is awesome. She is an absolute ball of energy, and doesn't usually say "no".

She never gets mad at us, (Considering we don't do stupid things [ Yeah we do ]) and always makes us laugh whenever we get something wrong, even if you're the one getting it wrong.

A song we are working on, called "Perseus", we hit a wrong chord, and the entire orchestra took about 3 minutes to stop laughing.
