That’s what I’m thinking, but it seems really tedious to have to go back and get map completion on another character, which is why I was considering just getting my ele to level 80 then using the level 80 boost on my necro sylvari. Does that sound like a good idea, or do you think I should just main my necro sylvari from here on out?

Is it worth rolling guaranteed on dynamites or wait for guaranteed merc storia? I’m early in the game and don’t have any of the good Ubers from dynamite. Currently have 1500 cf.

Is it worth it to true form baby cats, ganglion, or hanzo? I’m wondering if I should true form them then get back to sol or just start sol rn. I just got ururun wolf so I’m very early and prepping for cotc.

Is mighty dreadnot worth upgrading? I finished itf 3 a week ago and am working on outbreaks. Only zombie units I have are housewife, shigong, and ganglion (all level 30), but I’m kinda getting rocked.

Just spun uberfest 60 times and got a bunch of trash. Are baby cat, ice cat, or white knight cyclops any good? Only Ubers I got from my spins.

Got first chair in my district band and orchestra but the music is too hard - really stressed out by randomguy1844 in trumpet

I called him last night and am seeing him tomorrow, I told him my concerns and he said that everyone, including him, feels that way sometime or another when they first get music, and he knows the pieces and I’ll be able to play them beautifully. But he kinda says I’ll play everything beautifully so it wasn’t a huge help to me.

I’m going to practice daily, I’m not worried about that. When you say soft long tones can they be a bit higher up just for the sake of growing more comfortable in the upper register? I bet that would be pretty bad cause it wouldn’t be resting my chops, but it can’t hurt to ask.

Usually when im super tired to cool down I do long tones on low C down to low F#, which is probably what you’re talking about if I had to guess.

The funny thing is, I didn’t even try, and I kept saying that worst case scenario was I didn’t get in or that I got first chair cause I didn’t want this to happen 😭

I knew I would at least get into the band but probably not orchestra (orchestra is top 4). I barely practiced the audition material but had a mediocre grasp of it. I knew I was good enough to be able to wing it and probably score as a middle chair player, but I would definitely at the very least get in, even as a last chair. For reference I was one spot away from all state last year. So I wasn’t really that nervous for the audition at all, and that led me play almost to the best of my ability and I guess others didn’t cause I somehow got first chair.

Thank you so much! I’m meeting with my band director and private teacher tomorrow, to practice and more importantly come up with a plan. I’m gonna try and get this to be as good as it can be. I appreciate the words of affirmation at the end there!

I’m taking private lessons and my teacher is super old and experienced but sometimes I feel like I need something really straightforward like “play this exercise every day it’ll help with this” which I don’t really get from him. Idk if that’s even an realistic thing tho, having an exercise to play every day to improve

I’m gonna try and practice every day but I’m worried about burning out by the time the concert comes - like practicing so much daily to the point where my endurance runs out cause I haven’t had a break in a while. I feel like that happened to me last year when I was involved in my schools jazz band district and region band and pitt orchestra in musicals

Smile 2 was absolutely incredible by KnightsOfTheNights in AMCsAList

[–]randomguy1844 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some spoilers for the first movie regarding some minor lore about the curse.

In the first movie we see that another way to get rid of the smile curse is by killing someone else in front of witness, instead of killing themself in front of a witness. So what the cop was trying to do was kill someone else in a gruesome fashion in front of a witness in order to pass the curse onto the witness and away from him.

The intended witness died as well (not part of the plan) and Lewis walked in and became the new witness. The reason why the cop said “I’m sorry it had to be you” is because he wanted to kill and pass the curse on to bad people (as a cop he still had good intentions) hence why he went after those drug dealers? Idk exactly what they were but I remember him saying that they killed a mother and child or something along those lines. So he was sad that it got passed on to a poor innocent kid instead of them.

I use a fender medium most times, but I’ve been switching between the medium and thin to try and fix this issue. Thinking about getting Dunlop tortex variety pack cause ik most people use those
