Title: You know you're a music nerd when...
Post by: Qew on August 04, 2010, 05:48:25 AM
Post your stories :3

you walk to the organ and your teacher is playing a piece. He asks you "quick name the composer" and you wait and listen then say
"there's a little Bach in there... but"
"nup wrong try again"
*listens*
"vivaldi"
"why do you say vivaldi?"
"the chord progression reminds me of his orchestral music, like L'estro Armonico"
*stops playing, flicks to front of book*
"It's the 3rd Concerto from Vivaldi's L'estro Armonico arranged by Bach..... wow nice work."

You know you're a music nerd when...

you're the first one to finish a 75 question exam on the string instruments, make a 100, and in 8 minutes.

your teacher watches you using Mario Paint Composer in admiration.

when you get a prize in a talent show for playing Ultimate Koopa and you and your dad had to set up the 15-pound, disassembled keyboard on the stage before the show started.

:D Good times.

Going over music theory.

"Can anyone tell me what the relationship between the Aeolian mode is in regards to the Ionian mode?"

*I raise my hand

"Anyone besides you?"

I get that.

When an examiner plays a piece and says, "How did it start?" and you play the start of the piece without the music and say, "Like that."

Once my music teacher wanted to check if I am really good at music and she let the choir sing a chord. It was a D major chord and I heard that, she was angry and didn't talk with me the whole lesson.
:D

You know you're a music nerd when you thank your music teacher by saying "domo arigato mrs rubato", and everyone laughs...

I know it's corny, but it worked!

You know you're a music nerd when you pass a house on a windy day and think to yourself, "They have a gusty garden."

When you're playing the song someone's singing/saying multiple times. It's funny...
Once in class someone said something and I played the sound when you die in SMW. Oh, they laughed XD

I remember in middle school chorus (two or three years ago), our class had to do sight reading for a festival.
We had a minute or two to review the notes....
I was the only one who sung, and we got a good grade on it! :)

You know you're a music nerd when you're listening to "You Are a Pirate" from Lazy Town and realise the last chorus modulates up a semitone and rage because it annoys you (hate when they do that) to everyone's confusion.

Good catch. I'm not just posting to advertise, though. That's evil. ;)

You know you're a music nerd when you run a music website. Sadly.

Speaking of which, who made this site? I haven't really been here that long and I haven't figured it out yet.
Love the pirate song, 'specially when you type in "lol limewire" into Google Search and click "I'm feeling lucky". :P
