i’m so jealous of people who can play piano because you can show off your skills so subtly, like, oh there’s a piano here i’ll tap out a fun song. but with any other instrument it’s like HERE I’LL JUST WHIP OUT MY VIOLA or GOOD THING I BROUGHT MY FRENCH HORN HERE WITH ME
IVE BEEN CARRYING THIS UPRIGHT BASS AROUND FOR JUST THIS MOMENT
#OKAY BUT HERE’S THE THING#i’ve played flute for a half dozen years or so#and i tried picc once or twice but last year i became my band’s Official Picc Player and i got my picc and it’s. so small. omg.#like i’m talking the picc is maybe ten inches and the case is set up so it’s maybe eight inches across it’s TINY#and right when i got the picc i was in the midst of hoodie weather#and i had this new hoodie that had a huge front pocket and i loved it#so i had my picc and i was hurrying somewhere and needed both my hands so i just shoved the piccolo in the hoodie pocket#and i kind of forgot about it (as much as you can forget putting an instrument in your pocket) but then in my english class#someone was making jokes about band kids and how obsessed they are#and they went ‘i wouldn’t be surprised if jaz had an instrument right now’#and it was just one of those moments where like#the stars aligned#everything was perfect#and i just went ‘well actually’#and pulled the piccolo out of my pocket#and the entire room LOST IT (via officialseancassidy)
