well that is rather a load of ********, not to mention completely irrelavant. for one, not having the prospects of becoming a "great musician" is no reason to not enjoy music and playing instruments. don't even be the best you can be, just be whatever floats your ****ing boat. be happy.

don't mind dan, he forgot to take his meds. lay off the kid, eh dan? he's not a hated music major, he's just seeking out other people with perfect pitch to see how special his gift is perhaps, and this is OBVIOUSLY a good place to look for people with pitch, and NOT a good place to look for encouragement, unfortunately.

Originally posted by DanG That on its own is quite worthless though. All that counts is that it is one factor in aiding in the swift learning of an instrument at a young age. You can never become a great musician if you start after about age 7 or 8. |
