      Well, it would result in several funeral marches, but it has no atmosphere of funeral at all.

      I would really like to delve deeper into the commonness of INTJs amongst musicians. Perhaps I can get some of my conservatory friends to take the test...

      That is what a band jam session here is like. :P

  7. Also, a new word is Gladiate, coined on Thursday by RG's band, meaning to be in a pose as if you're protecting yourself with a shield.

  8. So from 9AM CDT Saturday to 10 PM CDT Sunday, I'll be in Rome and Atlanta Georgia for a marching competition.

    2. Rahkshi Guurahk

      Rahkshi Guurahk

      Yes. Coincidentially, some of the band is going to the real Rome later this year.

  9. Fun fact: if you're in high school, your Alma Mater most likely comes from this piece by Charles Ives:
