sleep
we played that song in band today with the little middle school kids that came. man it makes me reminisce. all those years of middle school band…touring around the middle schools and then getting mcdonalds, sucking in general, thinking i was the shit. good times. and kids are SO SMALL. omg, there were so many of them and their heads rose above the stands
talking about reminiscing…senior year in high school we played Sleep in honor band, and the conductor started crying in the middle of the piece. she was sobbing so hard that we had to stop and everyone was like wtf. turns out it’s cuz we were playing so beautifully and intensely that she couldn’t take it. man that was a pretty crazy band moment.
when people cry from listening to/performing beautiful music…that’s when i know it’s all worth it.
