I have absolutely no need for this, but OH LORD, I want it! I'm torn between "It's $40 for something I can not use," "I might kick myself later if I don't buy it," and "kjdfhjkslhcnakb I NEED IT!" I think that last one's winning. That's exactly what I thought... I can't use it to any good purpose myself, but still want a copy.

Good grief, that's a sexy bitch.
I mean, unless it has colour-coded slidewhistle instructions with helpful pop-up animal faces, it would be utterly useless to me, but... whoa.

Have faith, Tristan, years ago I wished and hoped for some oboe on the next Final Fantasy album and Heartland is covered. BELIEVE.

I would highly recommend doing it. If you can read music, it's more fun than you could ever imagine to follow along in the score while listening, it makes you pick up so much more. If you're a theory nerd, you can actually do analysis or look at trouble spots ("So...Mt. Alpentine is in B major, but the vocal line is written in Bb major?" "I guess Owen really reads The Great Elsewhere in 4/4 from start to finish" "So that's the string motif in Tryst, and the performers are supposed to 'play with it, no two players the same'"). If you're an arranger or looking to perform, this is your bible.
On my list of most valued possessions, this is seriously up there for all those reasons.

Anthony, I want to kick you. -also, I'm Very, very, very happy Blocks will be distributing this! It felt sort of weird only seeing Domino get their hands on Heartland... Though its not extremely distinct, at least Tristan has 'Do You Love?', right?

richie if you form a heartland-covering string quartet at PSU, we can request the chronicles of sarina at the next portland show!
I hope they have a few of these left at the portland show, because I really, really want one. Even though I can barely read music.

Oh goshh.. ahah yes. ;D I'm just worried whether or not I have it in me to get into the music program. (my violin instructor is saying 'not', my gut is saying 'go for it anyway', I am setting myself up for failure)

You can do it, I'm certain! If I can, you can. (Well, maybe I can't. But you still can.)

(my violin instructor is saying 'not', my gut is saying 'go for it anyway', I am setting myself up for failure) You totally should, Richie. You'll just have to practices more, but I am pretty sure you can do it. And just in case, I'm sending you positive waves: ~~~~~~~ <-- these are the waves btw.
