But I was determined! I took my ocarina with me today, and after my last class and a bite of lunch, I sat on a bench infront of the library and started playing. I was timid at first, playing as quietly as I could, which played hell with the high notes. After warming up, I started playing "Still Alive" from Portal. [link] If you'll listen, you can tell that most of the notes are pretty high. After the first 2 chords, I was afraid I was getting on people's nerves, so I stopped. When I did, this guy who was walking infront of me started humming where I stopped. O.O He nodded at me, I nodded back, and I picked up where he left off as he sang the words and went about his way. After that I played some Cosmo Canyon (my best song). By THAT point, I had like 5 people floating around me, listening and enjoying. :'D And then it happened.
Random Dude in Yellow: "That's pretty cool. I wish I could stay and listen, but I gotta get to my next class."
Me: "No sweat, glad you liked it. Take it easy!"
RDiY: "You to, and keep up the good work!"
As he walked off, someone asked me if I just play game music. I admited that most of the songs I know are from games, and that I'm a huge nerd. To prove it, I started playing the Tetris theme. When I finished, the guy in yellow HAD COME BACK TO LISTEN TO MORE!! *pleased*
And as if that isn't the best part?! Shortly after that I started to play some music from Legend of Zelda: Windwaker, 'cause I think it sounds amazing on the ocarina. I had like 8 people floating around (a few even clapped to the rythme!), when suddenly one guy starts dancing.
I'll pause while you find your socks that just blew off... *waits*
Yea, I'm playing the Windwaker theme, and this dude starts doing the River Dance. It. Was. EPIC!!!!!
From now on, I'm taking my ocarina to class every FREAKIN' day!

I am glad you remembered tho. If it wasn't for the fact that I have work tomorrow, I wouldn't remember a thing in the morning. I'd be wondering what time the bus hit me, lol.
