So you're not fighting for anything? You're just fighting back against your own demons? No wonder you keep losing.

I haven't had any time to draw this week between working extra hours at the gallery and musical tech week and I teach at a music camp next week! So instead I wanted to share what it looks like to be in an orchestra pit (especially for people who have never seen one before). The conductor is on a platform and the opening allows the conductor to see what's going on stage so they can cue both the pit ensemble and the cast ensemble on stage. I've had a little experience conducting the end of Handel's Alcina and it was SO NEAT seeing everyone and the stage so close up, while being able to work with the pit musicians. I always joked its the best seat in the house (also the most nerve-wracking)

tbh, this pit is one of the nicest I've been in, they're usually just concrete and dust 😭 the other one I usually play in also has a low ceiling so I can't pull my endpin out and use a stool for playing so I have to play like a literal gremlin 😂

This is what it's supposed to look like:

Here's me with the worst posture and hoping my professor doesn't come down to see this atrocious technique:

I've played in a lot of musicals, some of my favorites being Elf, Sound of Music, Ride the Cyclone, Newsies, and recently Beauty and the Beast! My favorite opera to play in was Puccini's Gianni Schicchi, which is an absolute riot of an opera (it's basically Weekend at Bernie's).

sometimes I think about writing and singing music not because I’m an incredible singer but because no one has my fucking voice, especially in popular music, and its disheartening to be born a girl, told you’ll only get girl roles or try to voice match other girls, or ‘sing with the girls’ and then only be able to match male voices because you’re a fuckin tenor and not anything higher. I can’t think of any girl Broadway roles I can hit all the notes on. Most songs I love I have to pitch down for myself or use falsetto for singing along to. It bothers me a lot less now because I’m an adult who’s more secure in myself but as a teen in kids musical theatre it FUCKED with me, BAD style. And I know for a fact that even now when I hear people with a voice like mine singing I get excited and immediately invested in their work because they’re like ME, finally, for once. A brother in this world of being afab and having the voice of a recently pubescent boy forever. Maybe I should be that brother too.

always feel so bad getting my dad such predictable christmas presents but hes so hard to buy for...all he ever wants is books + cds but he knows exactly what he wants if you tried to pick a cd for him that would be disastrous. so he just has a list of even more cds and we get him a few of those but i wish i could pick something for him as a surprise that he would genuinely like : ^ (

Drones [song] was recorded at the back of Bob Dylan's bus. I tried to get Dom to sing the baritone* and soprano bits but he didn't fancy it.

—Matt Bellamy, on writing the self-titled closing track on the Drones album

* Given he is probably talking about the 4-part SATB harmony, he probably meant bass not baritone, but whatever

Oh hey it's the performance from this video, in slightly higher quality

LOL john has to bend down so far to reach the mic no wonder he gives up on doing the vocals

I feel so powerful I just played through the Foundations of Decay on the bass along with the original song in the background!

I call this gif: "my oshis waving me goodbye from the gacha pool as I yet again fail to bring them home" 😅

Well, at least Madara is still missing. Hokuto… came home as starter. Again 🤣 I was gonna reroll between Trickstar and Double Face gachas to see which of my duo will come home first, and he answered immediately. And then reappeared via current gacha 4*, while I only have a random 3* of Madara's. Which brings us to my current home screen:

Hokuto is all dolled up, his outfit even kinda suiting the backdrop, but Madara, didja fall into a fountain outside or something, why are you sopping wet 🤣

I forgot I play the bass

Its just sitting there it its case

In the corner of my room

Waiting to be plugged into the amp

Which is on the other side of the room

Waiting to be played

And horribly slapped

For notes to be butchered

And songs to be sloppily played
