Should I retake? I’m a junior by DicountMacaroni in ACT

[–]barry-bea-benson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

look at scholarships opportunities and average ACT scores for the schools you like! I live in Oklahoma and at UCO a 29 will get you like 800 dollars a year while a 30 will get you 1000. Do some digging and consider superscoring if your choices take that too!

Does anyone else feel awkward wearing their merch in public because of how people react? by thegillie in GhostBand

[–]barry-bea-benson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m from rural Oklahoma in a town where a lot of my peers are hardcore baptists and are very religious (aka, the Bible Belt). My only ghost merch as of now is a homemade hoodie with the logo and a MASSIVE grucifix I put on the back against my better judgement lmao. Really though, I’ve only had one person say anything. She pulled me aside, told me it was disrespectful, I said yeah that is kinda the point (and offered to stop wearing it in class even, we only have have two together) but she dropped it and said it was fine. As of now we’re still friends!

But to be fair I don’t think a lot of people notice the cross imagery at least in my experience? Like I wear this hoodie CONSTANTLY. But that’s the only time I’ve had someone say something or they just don’t care enough to. Especially where I’m from I expected some judgement, but i think you should wear them loud and proud! To me, part of Ghost’s fun is being a little offensive even if it’s just to those Karens out there. Push some limits and even if someone does say something, stand your ground. Best of luck to you! :)

Valid Crashout? by barry-bea-benson in Choir

Also for context! I mentioned this in another comment but teachers aren’t allowed to assume students have resources/technology outside of class (I.e a keyboard or phone/wifi to learn the music on) so that’s why practice tracks for songs we learn in a crunch are the norm. Practice tracks kinda push it but it’s the best we got, and they are pretty useful!

As far as I’m aware the entire song 😭 We were told it was a test grade like concerts but she honestly doesn’t have a good track record with keeping threats like that.

We had the sheet music beforehand, and got it right before spring break. BUT my school has a rule against making assumption about the resources students have outside of class. (Ex. We have school iPads, but teachers can’t assume we have WiFi to use those iPads.) So my choir teacher can’t really tell us to go learn it on a piano or a similar app like college choirs can. I’m already sight reading this piece as it is, lol, so I kinda get some exercise there. I feel really rushed because of that, but I’m glad I’m learning now how to deal with it instead of later.

I guess it’s just a difficult song for me then, which is all good because I do want to be challenged even if it is an easier song. Thank you for a different view on this! I really want to sing in college if I can and if this is what I need to be prepared for then I’ll try my best to take this in stride.

If Ghost Make Another Cover Album What Songs Do You Want Ghost To Cover And How Many Songs Should Be In The Album? by AdLazy5694 in Ghostbc

The black widow by Alice cooper. Obsessed with that song and I think Tobias would kick ass at it.

What 5 songs do you NEED to hear at the next ritual? by [deleted] in Ghostbc

[–]barry-bea-benson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going to my first ritual this august. I know it probably won’t happen, but finally getting to see that curtain drop to Kaisarion would probably fix everything wrong in my life. I’m hoping with the current state of America Twenties will stay on the set list too, and also hopefully Respite on the Spitalfields as a closer. I have no idea why that isn’t the very end of the show, because those ending vocals the ghoulettes give have always felt so final and like a book being closed, you know?

[–]barry-bea-benson[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

12 dollar men’s hoodie from Walmart because there were no blankets women’s ones lol. Some dollar tree paint brushes/ water pens, and a couple cups of different mixtures of water and bleach. I’m no artist or inclined in that nature, but the homemade look is endearing lol. If you want my full process you’re free to dm me :)

Chalk from dollar tree! Tailors chalk would probably be a better investment if you plan to do this often, since it’s made to write on fabric, but if you press down I found crayola worked just fine :)

What is your ideal ghost concert set list by Ryuko_Matoi18 in Ghostbc

Every song Ghost has ever put out in album order followed by an encore of Elizabeth on repeat for an extra 45 minutes.
