A FRENCH HORN AND AN OBOE PLAYS IN THE BEGGING OF THE LITTLE MERMAID!!!!! AWSOME!!!! =D
I love the oboe! I played it in college and had a lot of fun with it. I hope you do, too.
I’m an oboist (person who plays the oboe, a double-reed woodwind instrument) who has been playing since I was 9.
… I just thought it was cute that he explained what an oboist was. We need to do that sometimes.
What a beautiful day!!! This would be a great day to play golf. But I’ve traded my golf days in for running kids to oboe lessons, cheer practice and dance lessons. Also whatever else they are to have me do. Not to mention what ever lovely wife requires of me. Wow what happened?

ey vocal major..[explective removed]! cool you can sing, but I’m fairly certain if I took out my oboe right here and started playing you’d be annoyed too.
