We’ll all be like “THE 90’S WAS A GREAT TIME AND THERE WAS GOOD MUSIC AND CARTOONS AND WE ONLY HAD 150 POKEMON”
And our kids will be like “HOW DID YOU LIVE WITHOUT TELEPORTERS? YOU HAD TO TAKE TIME TO GO PLACES? I DON’T WHAT I WOULD DO IF I COULDN’T GET TO SCHOOL IN .5 SECONDS! I’D DIE!”

Back from camp, just for today.
Summer camp has been really nice so far. Now that I’m Junior-Assistant Scoutmaster (JASM) I get to do whatever I want for the most part. When the scouts are gettin merit badges, I’m at camp, sitting around, writing, reading, or playing baritone. When they come back for meals, they can be loud and stuff gets stressful, but I can deal with things. I’m taking the only night class...
I suddenly have a feeling
that I won’t be sleeping well tonight. Imma label it paranoia and hope for the best. 12 hours from now I will be at scout camp, normally I’ll be gone all week, but I’m coming home late Wednesday because I have a parade to march in Thursday. I remember how last year, everyone was all “omg Bob Imma miss you!!!1 T.T”
This year, not so much. Not that I’ve...

Status I typed after hearing a crazy loud car...
To those asshats that insist on having extremely loud vehicles, You do NOT need to put a train horn on you car. I don’t need a heart attack every time you show off how loud you can get. And based on the clapping I heard after that, you guys are stupid white people that need to find something to do before I rip your spine out and floss with it. -Bob

Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker post.
The part after Tetra turns out to be Zelda, and the King locks her in the basement is just GREAT.
“Ok, go as far north as possible.”
I’m here, now can I talk to that Sage?
“No, in order to get in you have to go really far south to get an item.”
Ok… I’m here
“Now, before you go on that island, you need another item that’s way up...

Last night was too damn crazy. My mom had requested I go to bed at midnight, so at 11:30ish I was thinking I would chill with some music and read some manga. But then I noticed something was wrong with a friend of mine.
I tried to comfort her, and eventually started succeeding at it, but then I notice I got a notification about a comment on my status. (Your noticing of this...

Why must my dad always irritate me?
I’m just trying to watch Ao No Exorcist in piece, and he has to barge in, demanding that I get up before noon, call him when I wake up (this morning he called me 4 times, emailed me, and FB inboxed me, but when I call back, the phone rings for 2 minutes so I hung up then), asks what I’m doing tomorrow as if I fucking know, then demands I work on merit badges to get Eagle. I know I need...

Post bandcamp life.
I woke up at 1, and I haven’t done anything yet today. Seeing as both of my parents work nowadays, my days will go like this. It’s good to relax, but will I be able to adapt to this new lazy life?
It’s almost dinnertime, I’m trying to transcribe a Linkin Park song for solo euphonium before I have to eat, I haven’t played euph in a while (2 weeks now) due to switching...

Band Camp- Cedar Point
Every year our band preforms down at the best amusement park around after we finish band camp, needless to say, this is always amazingly fun and I enjoy this tradition extremely.
We start with a short parade, the tuba instructor volunteered to march with us, some other staff helped fill in some holes (a band member has been in jail all summer, another went to St. Louis today, etc..) a former band...

Band Camp- Day # Fuck Counting Days
I think I forgot to mention this yesterday, but the sousaphone feels like 5 pounds now.
So today is the last day of actual band camp, we ran the shows like crazy until it became presentable. Then we waited for our first preview show of the day.
It rained. Ok, we’ll preform in the gym.
I played my ass off, and at some point one of the trumpets said “too much tuba.” After the...

James Verone told Charlotte’s WCNC-TV that he was unemployed and broke, and thought his only option was to go...

FuckYeahBand!: Music for Mathew! →
msdrbeat:
We had a student in our band, his name was Mathew. He was a senior apart of the class of 2010. He was the most cheerful member always excited to come to band class. He would always sit right next to the first row clarinets smiling and waving his shaker. He was always smiling,…
Very touching, this is one of the best things bands can do, my band similarly preformed at an event...
Bandcamp- Day 6
Ok, Bob, make this quick…
So this morning, my shoulder was all “Noooo! not more of this! -hurts-“
I get there and I’m told we are inside all morning (it’s raining? I didn’t notice) Note: it wasn’t raining.
We got a lot done on the music, and ran the show a few times, we have 2 performances tomorrow!! I was struggling with one song, but now that our...

the-opinionated-musician:
Remember when you were younger, in elementary school, and you would take all kinds of random field trips? You’d go to the zoo, the symphony, fire station, even the local jail in some cases. The trips we took as kids served a sole purpose: to educate us. Give us culture. Expose us to the world…
Really good point. I’ve had one outside of band trip, all it...
Somebody informed me that they lost the game.
I almost said “I will rip out your spine, and floss with it.”

Now that I actually decided to learn some more...
I’m fixing the bassline in my arrangement for Papermoon from Soul Eater (work in progress), it no longer sounds like I don’t know what the hell I’m doing, because now I do .￣▽￣
But now I’m wondering what to do with upper low brass, they used to double the old tuba part. -.-

So I’m browsing the Gamefaqs forum on Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and I feel so awkward because I’m not as nerd as the people that are posting. I’m just trying to get info on what looks to me like an epic game (1:1 swordplay? sign me up!), and they’re talking about timelines and why Gannon should/n’t be in the game and bashing Twilight Princess for the storyline/...

Life is short, play tuba shirtless.
I would say play tuba naked, but the tubing on my sousaphone would be too close to my junk, and I don’t want to ruin the horn for future tuba players.
You get a tmi Tuesday on a SATURDAY! :P
