I relate to "Bob's Burgers" a lot (probably more than I should, to be honest). Being a music major, I relate to Gene a lot (probably more than I should, to be honest). Here are 14 GIFs proving that Gene Belcher knows what it's like to be a music major!
1. When you have to play different styles of music
Being a versatile performer is important.
2. Your response when your professor tells you to practice with a mirror
I get it, sometimes you need to eliminate excess motion or tension or something... But it's not fun.
3. Playing your favorite part of a piece like
Before your professor tells you to calm down, of course.
4. When you're performing and you see your friends in the audience like
5. When you hear someone playing your jury piece
Sometimes you hear someone practicing your piece for no reason. Sometimes you hear them stealing your thunder. Not cool. Especially if it's your signature piece.
6. When you and a friend see each other after an audition
7. When you plan your recital to look like this...
But of course, it doesn't. Instead...
8. When you end up having to work the lights at your own recital
"I'll just do everything myself."
9. When your professor says the word "choreography"
10. When you finally emerge from a practice room for the first time in hours
And you're in your comfy practicing clothes, of course.
11. When you have a quiet solo in a loud ensemble
12. Putting your practice session on pause for some gourmet food
Gourmet food (n.) - Any food that doesn't come from a vending machine.
13. Listening to your professor perform for the first time like
14. And finally, using your musical ability to seduce someone
Easier said than done, but possible. Just ask Gene.
