    Regarding professional musicians not enjoying it anymore: Some of the best advice I've heard about that came from a music professor at my university. He said that the times of his lack of enjoyment/burnout in his career came when he became ultra-focused on himself (his playing, perfectionism, etc.) only. When he instead also thought about how he could bring joy and happiness to other people through his music, he began to once again feel joy in playing.
    I'm so thankful for the ways TwoSet does this - so much great advice, encouragement, joy, and laughter brought by these two!
    Just a thought. :)

      Sleep deprivation is no joke. Especially when it becomes habitual. It can wreak some serious havoc on your metabolism in the long run, like increasing your risk for diabetes, obesity and strokes. Perhaps pulling this stunt a few times won't outright kill you. However, if associated with a high intake of caffeine, and/or also being stationary for extended periods of time, there's a chance that some people with comorbidities they might not even be aware of might die. I am no professional, but in my humble opinion, there are no benefits for a musician to practice for 40 hours straight, unless it's done as a publicity stunt. After the first 6-12 hours (or more, or less, depending on your abilities) everything you practice will be flawed - posture, fingering, picking techniques, or whatever your instrument might require, as you will inevitably get tired and sloppy. Again, some might go for more, some might go for less. I am fully aware that the "Ling Ling 40 hours" is a meme/joke/metaphor for the effort it takes to be great, I just hope this does not become a trend where people take it literally with potentially tragic consequences.

    "Speed is poor substitute for accuracy." --- I cackled madly at this, as it is true in my line of work as well. When I go for speed, my translation drops in quality (most of which is accuracy, haha!) So when my customers want both speed and accuracy, I ask for more pay, because I have to sacrifice off-work hours (or even sleep hours) to spend on the project to make sure it is accurate. Sometimes I do wish one day really had 40 hours. //laughcry

    I think the depression/hatred stage is kinda to be found in any more or less complicated profession. I've been translating research papers as my primary occupation ever since early 2012 (I was doing a major in linguistics and translation back then, so the career choice kinda fit the education); and as much as I sometimes enjoy learning more and more with every translation I do, the job has gradually become a routine rather than a creative experience that once felt so joyous and wonderful.

    My most embarrassing moment while playing violin in a church: Knocking over the stand while trying to change the page. Worse was because I was playing with an accompanying track that continued to play while I, red faced, picked up the stand and started over again. Another time while playing keyboard (again in a church) the stand gave way and the KB went crashing down. Why does God hate me?

After a couple hours of this annoyance I just went and got my husband's 70's era boom box - *fantastic* radio reception - and played the Minnesota Public Radio classical station (separate from the news station). Issue concluded within 30 minutes, and I went back to incognito re my music preferences. I actually love these particular neighbors. They're nice people face to face, and invited me over later on for their retirement parties, and we serve on the neighborhood board together. And we never had to have a face to face about this particular issue.

    Just a suggestion! Maybe there could be some special episodes of LL40H sometimes, for some cool stuff that for whatever reason doesn't make it to the actual episodes? I don't know, someone would have to dig them up somehow, but still. I think it's a real shame that e.g. the mangas made by u/Rainkie0729 and u/Yuuri14053 didn't make it. I mean, after Brett and Eddy _asked_ for manga, and some people actually made these things, I really wish the guys could see them! And then there was that movie trailer ages ago by u/twoset-merridian that they definitely should see too.

    Well, Holst was writing The Planets based on their names (i.e., the Roman gods) more so than the individual planets, themselves. For example, "Mars, the Bringer of War" is the full title of the Mars piece. Mars is the Roman name for Ares, the Greek god of war (and, no, you can't start talking about Kratos here).
    So, in this sense, if someone wrote a piece called Earth, it would be based on the Greek primordial goddess, Gaia. And, to keep with the Roman name theme, the piece would be called Terra.

    i was supposed to have school assembly ONLINE with the principal and the vice principal inside zoom class. i got the role of a instrumental playing minimum 2 mins long. i practised for almost more than a week to perfect this piece(its a korean folk song i chose cuz the topic for assembly was “positivity” so the beats are hard to match between right and left hand)
    the teacher then randomly told me to play the piece to the whole class *during the class, completely random during accounts class* and i said miss i didnt complete the piece yet. then she just-
    *I THINK I GAVE YOU ENOUGH TIME TO PRACTISE AND U STILL HAVENT COMPLETED UR PERFORMANCE? see it only barely takes one day to complete a piano piece and i gave you more than a week(no she didnt).*
    i was triggered how she said “less than one day to complete, barely” and i raged at my lingling fren.
    *BRO THIS WOMAN THINKS THE MOTTO “PRACTISE 40 HOURS A DAY FROM LINGLINGS AND WANNABES ARE ALL JOKES AND SHOW FOR TH-cam*
    and i sent her and now she wants another cut with my face on the video. here i am, 1 hour later, screw practise. i have like 3 hours and idk if i can make another perfect cut.

    I played flute in a wedding band a few years ago. We were hired to play an outdoor gig in Ocean Shores WA, and it didn't seem so bad, cause we had played on/near beaches before. But when we got there and they showed us where they were setting everything up, it was literally 3 feet from the water. Like, the sand was damp. We told them we couldn't play our instruments there and they agreed to move it back to where the water didn't touch, but we were still angled slightly towards the sea. The wind was coming in so hard that it would hit my mouthpiece and my flute would sound on its own unless I kept my hand over the opening. That day we lost something like 300 paper clips trying to keep our music down. It was an absolute nightmare.
