I would die if the hair on my cello bow was destroyed, because my spare bow is CRAP. (although it would give me an actual excuse to tell my teacher why I played halo instead of practicing xD) You know you can just get the bow rehaired, right?

Yeah, I forgot you can rehair the bow. Hopefully I didn't throw the bow away. Note to self: Never try to do the solo from God Knows... on the violin ever again.

Practicing my vocal work and the theme from 'UP' on the ocarnia. The cold weather makes it so difficult to warm up my voice!

That song sounds like something from BioShock.

But yeah it does stink to play in cold weather; especially when you can't wear gloves because it will interfere with playing the instrument. >_<

I don't think Allegro Appasionato fits with BioShock....xD

I hope I never have to play outside in cold weather....T_T I think I remember my teacher saying once that you can wear gloves if you cut the fingertips off...

Really?! I think the song has that elegantly eerie beautiful dark sound to it that reminds me of BioShock's music.

Those kind of gloves are practically useless; I know by experience. Sure it covers most of your hand, but then you can't feel the ends of your fingers; In addition, the gloves really don't provide enough warmth for your hands. I've never done this myself, but I've hear people stick things called 'hot hands' in their gloves for warmth.

So is this just for free play or is this going to be at a concert?

BTW - I went to your site and put that sentence in Google Translator and it was kind of funky.
