disappointed with all the verbiage of the eczematous girlfriend etc…; my goal was to find a source where real instructions could be received – even if it must be for a fee. Let me know if you have such an arrangement on this website. Thanks.

You can always check out some Apocalyptica for inspiration…

Cello and French Horn are my Classical faves.

We were at another recital/awards ceremony last night; a 12 year old cellist played and she so rocked. She was incredible. I was thankful for my lessons, which gave me the ability to at least appreciate her playing like that, not that I ever will myself.

PS, the cello is one of my favorite instruments to listen to. I envy your learning the instrument.

Unfortunately, as someone’s who’s been a professional musician for 25+ years, I can tell you it’s always like that. Even when people think you’re a real musician, all most of us ever do is try to try to clear up the eczema a little more every day, or work on the vomiting–but probably not both.

I mean, playing music is a high like no other, but it’s not like you get to feel good about how well you play, because you can always hear how much better you should be. It’s always just out of reach, and that’s the way it should be.

Or maybe I feel that way because I suck. Hmmm…

Nah, it wasn’t Alpha’s first comment, she started a couple posts further down. Funny, it wasn’t her normal ISP, either.

Do we get to meet this girlfriend? or will she be kept locked in a case somewhere?

A breath-takingly beautiful girlfriend? Is there something you want to tell me, dear?

I am speechless in the face of your descriptive vocabulary.

Wow.
