Everyone, whether they know it or not, are friends with a musician. Whether or not they know it or not, musicians are the absolute best people in the world. These people are usually very outgoing and have loads of fun. Here are 7 reasons why I'm a musician and why I love musicians!
1. We Always Have The Most Fun: We're usually doing something that involves everyone and we're always laughing and carrying on. This is usually because someone, or something, has done something very very stupid or random.
2. We're Always Eating: Since musicians are pretty active, we're usually pretty hungry. Almost anything we do involves food in some way, shape, or form. We're usually out getting milkshakes or fries or something like that.
3. Nothing Is More Fun Than Perfecting That Hard Classical Piece: You know that feeling when you've accomplished something that you knew would be super hard to do? Some people celebrate it by cheering, but we celebrate by the goosebumps we get by playing it so correctly and so beautifully.
4. Playing Fun Music: I've always enjoyed playing fun songs. I LOVE playing slow, beautiful pieces. It really brings out the emotions of music. So many people like the faster music with the sixteenth note runs, but taking a slow piece and making it sound so beautiful and full of emotions and power is probably the best thing about playing music.
5. Going on Trips With Other Musicians Is Bunches of Fun: We always go on trips to fun places. It doesn't matter if it's for something related to music and playing music or if we're just going somewhere to hang out, we always have fun and it's always really funny and entertaining.
6. We Constantly Hang Out Together: It could be good or bad, but we almost always hang out together. Our friend group can expand with more musicians but when non-musicians come into the group, they feel left out because we almost always talk about something that happened while playing music or while we're working with music. This usually pertains to those of us that are/were in marching band.
7. We Are Usually Some of the Nicest People You'll Ever Meet: We're the nicest group of people and we'll become friends with almost everyone. We try to include everyone and we want everyone to have a good experience. If you're gonna make friends with any type of person, become friends with the musicians. We're the best kind of people!
Musicians are the best kind of people and we love to make friends. Whenever you get the chance to either become a musician or make a friend who's a musician, do it. I promise, you won't regret it!
