I play the flute and you know us we have the 3 people that know what they're doing and the 5 that don't

Yep, and 1 that is the teacher's pet, and will murder to keep first chair.

I am a flute too. I know where it comes from.

@Relsey-TheElder

Well our teachers pet isn't first flute, our first flute doesn't deserve the position and is only first flute because I'm a freshmen and cant dethrone him yet but next year…. next year things will change

Me too. Me too friend.

@Relsey-TheElder

Actual conversation
Me:"hey dude you're playing this to fast its 120 not 180."
First flute: "WELL YOU DON'T KNOW YOU'RE PLAYING PICCOLO YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING"
Director: "Flutes you're playing it to fast its 120 not 180."
First flute:"Ok."
Me:??????

trumpets will be trumpets

yes, we will be us XD. My band director made us do a sectional but it started raining so we had to go inside and there's, like, over 45 of us that had to fit inside the strings room (our school has 1 room for choir, 1 room for band, and 1 room for orchestra) which is much smaller than the band room and my band director just scoffed and asked if that much ego could even fit inside the tiny room XD

@Relsey-TheElder

Haha, at my school we have the band room right next to the PAC (performing arts center ) and the piano room so we have all of the random stage supplies storage rooms to use for sections plus the stage and the piano room and the band room so we don't usually have that problem

Yeah, our orchestra is just really small so they get the tiny room XD

@Relsey-TheElder

Don't you just hate it when your director reads the score wrong and tells you you're supposed to play when your not….

Yes

@Relsey-TheElder

sigh The problems of the piccolo

Me too Relsey. When you try so hard but you don't succcceeeeddddd……

@Relsey-TheElder

When you tune to high and your Eb Is an Eeeeeeee

More like REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I thought you band kids might like this. We are playing this and the Hunger Games for our spring concert.

@Relsey-TheElder

gasp Its beautiful we're playing a peace called a Disneyland celebration right now https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FvOXBZ0WPWU

It's so jazzy. I like it.

@tospaceandback

hey were there any other french horns out here? there are only three of us at my schol

@Relsey-TheElder

Technically I play the flute but I can play the french horn

Does playing other low brass count? I can play many bc I have perfect pitch.

@Relsey-TheElder

I can play just about anything if you hand me a fingering chart

@Relsey-TheElder

i'm in the middle of a 100 measure rest…… piccolo problems

At least it's not like me. I have 237 measures of rest, but the conductor separated it into bars of 5,6,7,8,and 2's for no apparent reason. I haven't gotten to play in class for about a week now…

@Relsey-TheElder

Aww I'm sorry At least I have a piccolo solo so it makes up for the rests

I just a lonely flute in a lonely world… Well not really. The flute section has been just playing on our phones for the past 5 classes now.

@Relsey-TheElder

I mean you get to play on your phone so I mean that's better then sitting doing nothing

Yeah. unless u don't have a phone… like meeeeeee…… I just use my computer.

@Relsey-TheElder

I don't have a phone either so yaaa

Emmaleigh

@@Winter Yeah i don't have one either so when the low brass aren't playing a certain section, they all whip out their phones and i just sit there like, "ey…that's a nice wall' lol
