it's cuz upright is such a bitch. you have to practice with a tuner all the fucking time and even then. sometimes you'll be in pitch and it'll just be you playing and some other musician and that musician is kinda out of pitch but everyone just goes man it's the bassist because a clarinet has never been out of tune before i guess
(that one hurt me)
oh also... why do drummers have such needy/bitchy/awful girlfriends?
(there is no pun. just truth.)

True, drummer's girlfriends are pretty bad, and distracting, just let us fucking practice bitch you two can be together later, and being a bass player Upright is hard to play, and I always blame the cellos, they are the worst!
