| well i forgot to mention what happened in band class today. we had a memorization test on the first song of out show, n me being the lazy fucker i am, didnt sign up for a partner to play it with. we hadto play it infront of the class with a partner from memory while marking time. so somehow i got paired up with magda, sharif's sister. it sounded weird, cuz im on sax n shes on trumpet, so we have totally different parts. so we're up there marking time, and wind instruments come in in the 3rd measure, after the vibe intro, so we mark time for two measures, then go to a horns up and play, so we're up there marking time, n i saw she didnt do the horns up, so i look at her all puzzled n such, n after about two mroe measures or so of not playing, everyone in the room yells out how trumpets dont come in till like measure 7. that was really embarassing, but i just played it off with one of my dumb facial expressions. so we're playing, n i totally improv'd the first part of the song, cuz i totally forgot how it goes. it sounded right, but my section knew it was wrong, n they loved me for it. theres a drum break in the middle of the song, n the second half of the song starts right after that. so as we are just starting the second part, the fucking fire alarm goes off, so everyone gets up to go outside, and magda stopped to go put her trumpet away, n i just stand there blasting my part over the fire alarm. it was soo great. everyone was like, man, whata baller. lol, so after the fire drill was over, we started again from the second part, n we we're playing, and sharif makes some stupid funny face to magda, n she just breaks out laughing, n stops playing, while i just keep on going, due to my uncanny ability to laugh n play at the same time. i just blasted my part all alone n finished the song while making some stupid faces to everyone thats allready laughing. i finished it off playing the last few notes an octave down, for effect. oh man, it was great. im not gonna call myself a baller for that, cuz everyone allready did. was just a fun experience i wanted to share. it probably sounds really lame, but im not good at describing these things. | |
