As for me, I have to play this on trumptet. Very dificult fingerings!

[xoxoSoccerQueenxoxo]

I have to play this on flute, and I am terrible at "The Star of the County Down", because for one, I have trouble with the high notes, and I don't think I can play that fast.. It's so sad...

[Occlumancy]

[dolphinloveremogirl]

it sounds really good. but i hate being IN the all-state and all-county. it boring and a waste of time, all those rehearsals and the bd was really strick and mean. i love band but all-county and all-state is just too much

[FOBx3DGfan]

[13KoolKat13]
