the music stand

well.  there are varying types.  the wobbly one.  the one that creaks.  the one that is so stiff - when you finally bend it you fall backwards or forwards depending on the momentum - the one that stays in place until you put your music on it and then slips down.

the one i'm talking about is simply a magazine with all kinds of gifts for that special student or teacher.  i have no connections advertising-wise to this mag.  just that it randomly came in the mail.

i especially liked 'the theory of relativity' t-shirt.  it says E=F-flat

Yeah, but as a musician, I hate getting various and sundry of all the cheap "music" paraphenalia on sites like this.  The relatives who don't know what else to get you, or students....so you end up with 18 music-theme coffe mugs or pencils or plastic composer busts around.

Yes, i am tired of getting everything remotely related to music but music itself..i just want music!  sheet music, a new piano bench, cds, dvds, whatever.  my husband has every guitar/percussion shirt possible, he is actually emberassed by these gifts already, he doesn't even know what to say what he gets yet another guitar shirt.
As for themusicstand-i enjoy looking through it.

i suppose you're right.  another mug.  another t-shirt. 

i want to find some of those striped toe socks.  my feet are cold.
