High Maintenance is the best show on TV. Hands down.
We moved to Renick, West Virginia the summer before I began 6th grade. There was no musical instrument instruction at St. Joseph’s, the Catholic elementary school I attended in NJ, so I had no idea if I had any musical inclination or talent. I did, however want to play in the and. We had an old, worn out trumpet and trombone, and I decided that I’d play the trombone, for my father had done so as a child. Our WV home was a mile and a half down a dirt road. To get to the school bus stop, I had to cross the road, climb over the road neighbor’s fence, walk a path up a steep hill to their driveway, and then to the bus stop on Route 219. And that was at last a half a mile if not more. We had two opportunities to catch the bus, as it traveled first north and then south.
Where am I going with this? Remember, I was a slight child, and couldn’t have weighed more than 90 pounds. Yes, a 90-pound weakling. I attempted to carry the trombone to school and, well, it was just too damned heavy. My mother suggested that I talk to the band leader about playing another instrument. The only instrument that was both light enough for me to carry and that the elementary school had was a clarinet, so the clarinet it was! Most of my peers had already started learning to play an instrument a year or two before I did, but I was a natural and I quickly excelled at playing the instrument. I was first chair, first clarinet through junior and high school, and was a clarinet and music major my first year of college.
I still often play the clarinet in dreams and still recall all of the fingerings. Uhm, and I’ve been know to look for used clarinets for sell.
