Today, I had a music duet in front of a crowd and 3 judges. I play tuba and my partner plays the saxophone. He burst out laughing in the middle of it because one note that I played sounded like a fart. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to an orchestra concert. Halfway through the performance I had to fart really bad, so I decided to try and sneak it in while the orchestra was playing a loud exciting part. Just as I let it rip, there was a dramatic pause in the music. Everyone heard. FML
Today, I auditioned for a role in ballet. My stomach was in pain and as I ran to be lifted into the air by my partner, I let out a huge fart. The auditorium was dead silent. FML
Today, I auditioned for a part in a play. I've been practicing for months, and was very excited. After I'd finished singing, the director whispered something to the other judges, and they all laughed. Hard. So much for the lead role. FML
Today, I was preparing to perform with my marching band at a competition. Right before we went on, a tuba player friend of mine offered to help me stretch. He wound up snapping my bra. I'm a drum major, and had to conduct the entire show while my boobs were falling out. FML
Today, I was at a local talent show and during a piano performance I had to go to the bathroom. I sang along in the bathroom but was unaware how loud I was until I walked out and everyone started applauding me while the pianist was still playing. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I had band practice for our duo. I've been playing cello for almost a year and wanted to incorporate it. He picked it up for pretty much the first time and sounded surprisingly good. I was excited until I realized he sounded better than me. FML
Today, while waiting for my violin student to unpack his violin, he farted loudly and rhythmically on the sofa, and then went on about how it sounded like the "Shave and a Haircut" rhythm. FML
Today, I had a piano audition for a musical. Afterwards, the judge asked if I had any experience with percussion, and then told me she was considering me for a percussion part. I guess my piano audition really was THAT bad. FML
Today, I had a piano exam, for which I'd worked hard. I went in, and the examiner asked me to play some scales. I was so nervous, I played 3 octaves and then realised I'd ran out of space. I might have then said, "FUCK!" really loudly… and she heard. FML
Today, in marching band, the guy in front of me backed up too far. As we turned, the back of his trombone hit mine, smashing it into my lip. I had to finish the song, all while sending blood down my horn. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Wow, what an idiot. As a college piano major I give my tender sympathies that such people even exist.

You seem very emotional about this number 3.
friedpwnadge 25
I am indeed. It's a shame some people don't take music seriously.

Exactly, and his partner should be used to the tuba making fart-like noises

I agree. If people don't take what they create seriously, then the outcome definitely won't be as great.

You guys might want to consider taking the benefit of the doubt. Maybe his partner was just nervous and this time burst out laughing. I mean no doubt he's heard the "fart" noise on the tuba before.

In nearly a decade as a performer, I've seen some horrifying things. 'Murica is the worst place to try to get people to seriously appreciate art.

You're being thumbed down, they must have finally figured out that 'Murcia is an insult aimed at them. About time, it was starting to get old.

51, you're kind of an asshole. Don't generalize. "'Murica" is something Americans use too as a joke towards uneducated people, racists, rednecks, etc. Sure, the U.S. has a ton of ignorance or other issues but what country doesn't?

Clearly someone isnt as mature as you. I wouldnt let that get to you, remember the judges aren't critiquing you on fart noises! For all you know it might have helped you! Keep working hard

I want to know if they're being judged as a team or as individuals. If they're being judged separately, OP doesn't have it so bad. Still, it sucks though!

Sounds like you hit a flat note... Flatulence.

The judges must have been a-gas-t.

Your performance should have gone fart-her.

One note? Don't you mean all of them?

Most people think the tuba just makes fart noises, and as a tuba player, I want to point out that it only sounds like that when you screw a up on a note, other wise it sounds pretty normal for a brass instrument

Sometimes...I wish I can fart music. Farts are usually funny...at least they are for me. But there are times when being immature is not okay, and that was one of those times. FYL

You never know, maybe the judges thought it was funny too.
