Ohh people. This is another reason why I don't understand the things that they do. What are your top bands or artists? I know it starts with Rascal Flats and then Taylor Swift.

Yeah I know, but still they do

I'm surprised that they do because you really don't listen to offensive music.

Oh people try and tell me all the time what I'm "supposed" to listen to.. it makes me so mad. Music defines who I am.

To me music is freedom. No one can tell me what I can and can not listen to. It's also one of the only things in life that never disappoints.

Aw no problem! Yeah I know, music is all about my life. I couldn't go a day without it.

Music has been very influential on my life, I can't give it enough credit . That quote reminds me, from what I hear is that artists hear music when they're painting and then musicians see paintings when they are creating music. I like that quote a lot, thanks for sharing .

That is so true. You make a very good point about keeping tempo. I always hear my band teacher telling percussion not to slow down in the middle of a song. So yes I completely understand. It is so worth the challenge. I found this quote today on my Facebook.. I think you'll like it: "A painter paints pictures on a canvas. But musicians paint their music on silence." -Leopold Stokowski

You bring up a relatable statement about the mallets. As you probably know the drummer has the same responsibility to keep the tempo going, which is quite tricky, as I learned first hand. Music is definitely a challenge no matter what you play but it's so worth the challenge. It's nice to know a fellow musician so we could talk about music all we want to and actually understand each other .

lol my bad :P

Any instrument can be hard to play. It can be hard to learn and as you continue to play each instrument, you learn more about it. And I guess I'd have to say the piano. That's because there are certain pedals you use. Which I only have a keyboard at my house so I never really was able to learn the three pedals yet. But I learn at school because we have two pianos. Plus the piano can also require bass clef, which I'm more familiar with treble. But then the flute can also be hard. Like tonging and making sure you have enough air, when to tell if the instrument is sharp or flat. Remembering all the fingering and trilling. While mallets you kind of keep the band in tempo. So its major responsibility. Plus its hard to look at your music, your instructor, and what note you are hitting all at the same time. The faster the tempo and depending what type of note you're playing its really hard when you have to play super fast, but also fun. But yeah I still learn more and more about the instruments I play. So its kind of hard to decide which one is hardest to play. But if I had to choose, I'd have to choose piano.
