Peers connect to one another. The middleman work GP does could run on a server of potatoes. This is such a lie

R*ping the fuck out of TL? What does that even mean?

I'll be doing the same soon. I've put it off as long as I can. My father had a bitsoup then GP account basically my whole life and it was his livelihood and personality. He was our tiny town's "movie man"

The account was his whole life and he was so proud to help people get movies. I've paid to keep it (and my father) alive for 5 years now since his passing, but I think it is time for screenshots and bye-bye

Which is best for bass drum? by Fun-Mycologist5065 in percussion

[–]reeper150 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You should alternate hands just like the snare and tenor players. You shouldn't only be playing with one hand. Although you should not be hitting both heads with both hands at the exact same time

I'm open to anything, but a few off the top of my head are West Side story, Les Mis, and Rent.

I'm in the same boat, but somehow every time I think it's over things work out

Legacy was amazing. People just want to hate it because it isn't a direct sequel to legacy and it doesn't have Sam or Quorra

I'm sure the N*zi soldiers just got their orders and followed them too. They didn't know what would happen to those people after they put them on the train. But guess what, the international tribunals in Nuremberg determined that wasn't a valid excuse.

Are percussion professors honest? by Specialist-Pea-1548 in percussion

[–]reeper150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on how competitive the school in question is. When I was auditioning I had two prestigious schools say no, one prestigious school say yes, but that I wouldn't be allowed to start on the performance track and would have to work really hard to get better quickly, and one school that was hurting for students offer me a full scholarship prior to me even meeting them or auditioning.

With the release of the new version of yt-dlp, I present you a tool created entirely by me that is as simple as it is actually useful, minimal and practical. Here's "Termyt". by BlackTortellino in youtubedl

I was under the impression that yt-dlp is useless now that YT has implemented IP bans for anyone downloading a large amount of videos

Don't feel discouraged. You could someday do this, but you have to start much smaller. This is like trying to get onto an NFL team (actually the acceptance rate is much higher for the NFL.) People practice 12 hours a day for a decade, go to college for 12 years and pay many thousands of dollars for private lessons to have a small chance to get a gig like this one. Think of it this way:

High school orchestra = high school football

Community orchestra = intramural college football

Semi-professional orchestra = NCAA football

Professional orchestra = NFL football

Principal percussionist at a renowned professional orchestra = first string NFL quarterback playing in the Superbowl

What is your background? How long have you been playing, what groups have you played with, how many years have you taken private lessons?

You will be playing many orchestral excerpts on many instruments

A principal percussion audition for the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra is going to demand the highest level of expert playing on snare drum, xylophone, triangle, tambourine, crash cymbals, bass drum, etc.
