SO I arranged Answers from #ffxiv for brass band. A dream of mine! Here’s a snippet of us working on it last night! Endwalker friends will recognize the quicker theme.

Imagine telling a professional musician that they don’t know what instrument they are playing and actually it’s something different ☝️🤡 “that’s not a euphonium” no shit sherlock, did I say it was? I play both baritone and euphonium professionally I think I know the difference

I've made some HUGE strides this year with mental and physical health and it has SHOWN. I am very proud of myself, and excited for the future. Yippee!

I’m heading to FanFest this weekend and while packing all my FFXIV merch I go “Wow….I’m really into this game huh?” Brother I forgot I literally have Midgarsormr tattooed on me.

Dudebros on facebook mansplaining what a baritone is to me. Sir, that’s me in the video. I’m playing the horn you’re arguing with me about. I’m being gaslit about baritone horns actually being tenor horns???

If you want to be successful, music has to be an obsession. It really does. "What's the point of being a musician if you dread picking up the horn, if you feel nothing when you perform?" If you are OBSESSED with music those things simply WILL NOT happen.

I have never once dreaded playing. I have never once not wanted to practice (once I figured out HOW to practice) I have never once hated playing the horn. I have never once felt nothing while performing or playing at all for that matter. I am OBSESSED. I LOVE music. MAKING music.

If you find yourself feeling those negative feelings (and they're not caused by outside stressors like major health issues) I would genuinely suggest looking into another CAREER. Keep playing. Find something else to make money with. Or you will grow to resent it and yourself.

Creativity comes in many forms. All of it lets you express yourself as an artist. Get to creating! #music #creativity #positivity

People demand culture in their cities; breweries, live music, art, vendors, small festivals. They deserve the culture. But the people supplying that culture (musicians, artists, service workers) need to be paid enough to live comfortably

No one wants to drive 2 hours one way to make $100 for one gig

your cities and culture will suffer if the artists and people who create the culture aren’t living there and aren’t being paid enough to even survive
