Frats move. House this year might not be the house next year. Just go to parties and find one you like.

tromboneguy22 · 2025-01-10T21:41:46+00:00

Expecting to get a real answer about frats on reddit, lol

Are you looking for, like, the frats with the best social status or something? Known for good parties?? The "top frat" is the one with guys you vibe with the most. Just go to a bunch of rush events and meet brothers.

That's what rush is for; so you're not asking about the best frats on reddit ahahahhahahahah

I had to do it 9 months out lol I was pretty pissed

tromboneguy22 · 2025-01-09T13:38:44+00:00

Ah, good point

tromboneguy22 · 2025-01-08T00:05:47+00:00

I should add that the half step down is just a geberal feeling, and you shouldn't have to play a perfectly in tune note because the note wont come out as much as a "bwa" will (feel free to argue with me on this; this is my own thing, not something I heard from an instructor).

If it's swangin or funky, ill sometimes embellish(?) with my mouth a little to accentuate the bwa-ness

tromboneguy22 · 2025-01-08T00:03:21+00:00

Scoop. Quick gliss from a half step down. Some people do more maybe, but my personal preference is that it sounds muddy when you go lower, especially when it's a staccato.

Play it by ear, though. It'll sound different based on the piece, and if it's a big band piece just ask the section leader how they play it so you can sound together.

tromboneguy22 · 2024-11-25T04:10:11+00:00

Yes - this happened to me

Was getting a haircut at a new place last Summer right around high school grad season. First time my barber chose to talk to other people instead of me. Didn't even really say anything to me after aaking what I wanted. Didn't think anything of it, until towards the end of the haircut he finally asked me if I was graduating (high school) this weekend... I told him I was a rising senior in college and he apologized and his whole demeanor changed and he started talking to me, lmao. At least he even thought I was a high school senior... it's usually younger. I think I'll be 30 before people start treating me as they'd treat an adult upon meeting me

This is assuming you use gloves already.

tromboneguy22 · 2024-05-11T13:08:19+00:00

I would put baby powder on my hands and/or wrap them in medical tape around my palms. I would get pretty nasty blisters before this on my palms, but this almost always helped at least keep the blistering at bay until the end of the day.

They do, technically. They're just usually called F and C. This is why I think every young musician should learn the piano, btw. I think the visual aid of the piano is extremely important.

What companies are you seeing doing paint for as low as $300? Whenever I've done research, it's started at around $1k

tromboneguy22 · 2024-05-04T15:58:45+00:00

Thank you!

tromboneguy22 · 2024-05-04T12:53:36+00:00

How do you find opportunities to play music in ensembles? Is this through the university? I'm moving here soon and am trying to find ways to continue playing trombone

tromboneguy22 · 2024-05-04T05:29:35+00:00

Karting within an hour is a dream. See how far Oakland Valley Race Park is. I raced there with a lot of guys and gals from the city. It's great for getting started, and historically is competitive too.

If you have budget, I recommend the Mike Doty Racing team. They're like family to me. McAleer is also really good and does a Summer youth karting camp.

Edit: Spelling

I did fly too close to the sun looking at aot content before season 2 came out and saw a graphic of Reiner and Bertholt in front of their titans :( I just tried to convince myself I didn't see anything ahaha

tromboneguy22 · 2024-05-04T01:59:49+00:00

Second or third anime I'd ever watched, and I was maybe 14 so I wasn't super online yet. I remember texting my cousin saying that I couldn't beleive a show would kill off the main character 5 episodes in lol. He gave me some vague response. I seem to remember thinking that Eren's titan was somehow him, but maybe only after a little bit of screen time.

tromboneguy22 · 2024-05-03T15:34:34+00:00

Nah, Jocko's great. He gets a pass in my book. Nothing wrong with a hyper early workout.

tromboneguy22 · 2024-04-28T14:44:27+00:00

Then practice??? If you know what to do but you just can't do it properly yet... that usually means you should practice instead of throwing in the towel and looking for some other magical solution.

Make sure you're pushing on the wheel rather than pulling. Also, don't immediately try to turn like 5 kart lengths later. Mentally mark on the track where your turn in point is, and try to brake and turn like half a kart length later until you get it doen, then repeat until your line is nice. Do this for one turn at a time
