I played the viola in high school! It was awesome being the only or one of a select few in every orchestra I joined. I've always loved the cello though, I think it has the most soulful sound of any instrument.
I'm from NYC too! I miss the crap out of it now that I've moved to a different country, especially now that it's summer and I'm missing out on food trucks and governor's island and PS1 Summer nights.
No I haven't unfortunately. I don't envy the task of carrying a cello around, but damn if it isn't the most beautiful sound. I love the Piano Guys mostly due to their cello renditions of songs.
House of Cards and OITNB will certainly give you that cliffhanger feeling. Modern family is a smart, funny comedy and has re-watchability through the roof. Sherlock is hit or miss sometimes, I definitely have favorites. It's very well created though.
Wait are you serious? I live on Union Tpke in Fresh Meadows!
So is this website largely discussion or is it also picture friendly?
How do I discover new communities? For example, I typically follow /r/Eatcheapandhealthy, /r/trollxchromosomes, /r/femalefashionadvice, etc. Is there a list of "subs" or whatever their equivalent is here?
I love it when people get the reference. The status is NOT quo.
