Band Instruments As Told By The Cast Of 'F.R.I.E.N.D.S'

Anyone who has been in band before knows that you meet your best friends there. Sometimes they aren't always the ones you expect. Now, each section of the band has it's own collective personality, and they seem to line up with the personalities of the different "F.R.I.E.N.D.S" characters.

Flutes and Piccolos

Emily Waltham

Like Emily early on in her appearances, the flutes and piccolos are sweet and caring people. They are kind-hearted.

Clarinets and Oboes

Janice

Clarinets and oboes are like Janice. They're just kind of always there. When they squeak instead of play I am instantly reminded of Janice's laugh.

Alto Saxophones

Mike Hannigan

Mike is a sweet guy who knows how to have fun in a unique way. The altos are basically the same in every way.

Tenor Saxophones

Monica Geller

Monica can be described as energetic, hyper, talkative, and having way too much energy. This describes the tenors to a tee. I have never met a more talkative group of people than the tenor saxes.

Baritone Saxophones

Richard Burke

Richard is the guy who looks unapproachable but also is a super sweet nice guy. Emphasis on the super sweet nice guy part. My bari sax friends in college band are so nice. They may look tough and unapproachable, but they're so nice and are great to converse with.

French Horns

Rachel Green

Like Rachel, the French Horns are spirited and funny. They care for their friends, even if it doesn't always appear like they do. They are a great group of people to be around!

Trumpets

Dr. Ross Geller

The trumpet ego SOO exists (and don't let anyone tell you it doesn't)! Much like the ego of Doctor Ross Geller. Ross has no problem telling people about his doctorate, much like the trumpets have no problem playing as loud as possible. Oftentimes both are unasked for.

Trombones

https://media.giphy.com/media/ESjlfUO4l68w0/giphy.gif

Gunther

Gunther is an oddball. The trombones are an odd group. They seem to have their own language for things, and sometimes can be awkward in conversation, like Gunther.

Baritones

https://media.giphy.com/media/usFFQTqGHYGQM/giphy.gif

Chandler Bing

The baritones are a funny bunch! They make jokes about literally anything and everything. It doesn't matter if it's appropriate or even if it makes much sense, they can make a joke out of anything and have a comeback for almost everything., much like Chandler.

Tubas

https://media.giphy.com/media/gD9fN082EsLwA/giphy.gif

Joey Tribbiani

The tubas are a fun bunch to be around. They are always hungry, they are loud and obnoxious, they are childish at times, but they are also some of the sweetest people I know.

Percussion

Phoebe Buffay

Percussion should be all I have to say, however that doesn't seem like it would be fair to percussionists. The percussion section is over the top like Phoebe. They are loud and hyper-active. They can't sit still and always have something to do.

Band friends are so much fun and they'll be there for you 'cause you're there for them too.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

SUNY Binghamton

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
