gonna be dorky. get over it! :-p

got this from someone elses post, thought it was funny. (you'll probably only get it if ur musically inclined)

ACTUAL INSTRUCTIONS TO THE ORCHESTRA FROM PROFESSIONAL CONDUCTORS (IN REHEARSAL)

"Please don't use the depth-charge pizzicato."

"Pianissimo doesn't mean 'Drop the f*** out.'"

"Listen to the tune, and then accompany it in a non-disgraceful
fashion."

"Let's see if you can pizzicato together in a non-banjo-like way."

"It's very hard to raise money for something that sounds like this does."

"Imagine you're getting enough money for what you do."

"Not so bright. It sounds like 'Orpheus in His Underwear.'"

"Play short, especially if you don't know where you are."

"That was a drive-by viola solo."

"Horns, imagine that you've had a really ugly breakfast and it's about to come up."

"There is a lot of fishing for notes. I wish you would catch them."

"Strings, I know what you're thinking: 'With all this racket going on, why
am I playing?' Well, there's no time for existential questions right now."

"This must be much more agitated. Think of someone you hate. Think of your mother-in-law."

"The place where you will be shot if you come in early is the bar before 26."

"Now forget all the nasty things I said and play naturally."

"You're all wondering what speed it's going to go. Well, so am I."

"Play as if you were musicians."
