Two Types of People

There are two types of people in the world: normal people and musicians.

Normal people get paid for working. Musicians do it because they are crazy.

Normal people don't practise their work skills in their spare time.



Normal people go to their friends weddings and enjoy the ceremony. Musicians work (for free).

Normal people can use one side of their brain at a time. Musicians have to use both at once. In fact musicians just don't have normal brains. http://musicpsychology.co.uk/musicians-brains-locked-in-from-the-start/

Normal people can say they've had a better offer and go to a party. Musicians can't because they are working (for free)

Normal people don't say their G-string is loose with a straight face.

Normal people have nice smooth skin and fingers where all the joints bend in the right direction. Musicians have callouses and clicky backwards bending joints. 

Normal people (women) can have long fingernails and nice manicures. Musicians clip their nails short.

Normal people have coloured clothes in their wardrobe. Musicians always have a variety of clothes to choose from for  a funeral. (which they will probably be working at -for free)


Normal people wouldn't dare practise their fingering in public. Musicians practise it everywhere; coffee shops, restaurants, on the bus, at long boring meetings etc.

Normal people think about hiring someone to move their furniture when they move house. Musicians consider asking their friends to help them push their piano up the hill. (While one person plays it and another lies on top dressed in drag like Shirley Bassey)

Normal people can listen to music without their fingers moving. Musicians fingers can remember how the music goes even when their brains can't.

Normal people can read someone's Facebook status and smile. Musician have to comment with a song.

Normal people read words made with letters. Musicians can read this:


Normal people go to Italy and either understand the language or don't. Musicians can understand any conversation about speed.

Normal people use the bathroom for washing. Musicians know it has the best acoustic and so is the best place to practise.
