I'm a Musician of All Sorts!

Well, I am learning so much. I sort of miss pipe band, but I am still going to continue playing. I am to the point now where I can perform for funerals for money, and there's still some bands around here, so I'll see if there's any I like. Another cool thing about being a musician is discovering different styles of your instrument and music you didn't really know much about. I just got recruited by a fife and drum corps yesterday online. I'm still learning what fife and drum corps is all about, so it's pretty interesting. It sounds like a cool thing. They tour and live like the days of the 1800's and have competitions called Musters. There are not any corps really close to me, but one corps in NH where my family lives invited me to come and learn for a few days, so I might do that sometime. I think fifes and drums sound really cool. When they compete, it seems to be more about preserving history than winning. The weird part though, is that girls have to dress like boys, because of the old uniforms. One of the coolest fife and drum corps is called the Old Guard. They are the official fifers and drummers of the army today. I'll have to post a video of them sometime. I'll tell you guys how it goes if I experience an event. I might even learn to be a fifer and really be a well-rounded musician. Soon I'll be able to play almost every type of instrument and people will be hiring me from all around. Here's a cool fife and drum video I found.
