Deafened by the Brass

While my mom is here, we went to the little parade thing that the marching band does every home game we have for the local college. She used to be in the marching band way back when she went to this school, and I believe I mentioned that my sister was in it for 5 years. I only managed one semester, but I remember enough to kind of dance along with the tunes. 

We walked down a little with the band, and when they stopped to perform, we stood right in front of the trumpets and trombones (and baritones, too). As they played their jams, I could feel the sound waves coming from their instruments, then resonating in my body. It was very enjoyable and is one of the main reasons I love seeing live music. 

Though, if I ever had to become deaf, I'd want it to be from standing to close to brass instruments. Deaf by trumpet squad. 

Here's an X-ray of my chest from about a month ago, I had to get one for work and they let me keep the picture. I definitely want this as a poster.

(also, post is late due to math. I tried doing it a night early)
