      Stick with it. Your instrument is you "ticket" to travel and meet people to go higher in life.
      Stay focused dating, tho normal will have to set aside. Education and increasing your "tickets" value at this time is what's important and must be built now.
      Look kid, life is a trip, if you got talent and sense to study, have time tools and make ...hence MAKE a way to invest in your gift, it will give for a life time.
      You don't have to been a "known celeb", that's another platform. Your GIFT , beset right, kept healthy and respected and above all appreciated bmas angift from the creator....YOUR GIFT WILL SUSTAIN YOUR LIFE.
      Remember,
      Practice before rehearsal.
      Learn more than one instrument and avenue in the entertainment field.
      Don't drink and stash your gig money away.
      Stay safe and focused and know by your ish.
      Be well Brass.

      Are you going to upgrade to a double horn? As for singing through your horn, if you hum a fifth while playing the root, you can get the 3rd in as a sympathetic vibration and play a chord.

    How can a human being dislike such a powerful piece of work like this one? Look at the girl in the middle, JUST LOOK AT HER EYES AS SHE PLAYS! She's feeling every single note so intensily it makes me wanna pick up my guitar just to get in tune with the same vibration! Those sounds are a force of nature!

      I think people are more self conscious these days. When I hear music on the street, I always groove out because I am well past the age of caring what other people think. It’s a great place to be, “dance like nobody’s watching”

    One in a million production. It all came together perfectly to create something immensely entertaining. The musicians nailed it. The sound engineer nailed it. The video editor nailed it. The garb and look of the three lovely horn players was incredibly exotic. Their moves. Hot. Sweaty. A groove that captivated my 15 month old grandson. Could not take my ears off of the solos. Guitarist had a very unique solo too. I only wish this band stayed together for a few years with this particular line up, look, and vibe. Great chemistry. I have listened and watched a dozen times and never get tired of watching. That is when you know you nailed it.
