You know you play the oboe when ...
...You have to explain which instrument you play before a concert.
...Got reeds in your pocket, backpack, at the computer table and almost everywhere
...You also have a permanent callouse on your right thumb
...You carry a chromatic tuner with you
...Your conducter hates you but won't let you leave
...When you will do anything to protect your reed
...People ask what instrument you play and when you reply "I play the oboe," They say something stupid like "Oh, isn't that the really big instrument that curves at the bottom?"
...Others glare at you for being the tiniest bit out of tune
...You care more about being prepared for rehearsal more than anyone else in the entire orchestra/band
....You find yourself talking to inatimate objects more than people
....The conductor ALWAYS look at you,even if you dont make mistakes
...Get frustrated when you are out of tune
...You are the 1st to complain you are tired.
The above stuff is so true abt an Oboist.. which is me :O.. haha
