Pit, Jazz, Pep, Orchestra… Band
There are countless names for it- but every musician knows it intimately: the hours spent rehearsing, the friends made, the arguments about which instrument is hardest… Music is a world all its own, and there's no better guide to all things music geek than The Guide to Band.
The Guide started as a silly "Map of Band" I drew in high school mimicking xkcd’s exquisite Map of the Internet. After going off to college, I decided to put my silly map away in a box, along with the rest of my music stuff.
But I couldn't resist. It was too much fun.
So, hundreds of hours later, I came out with a full-fledged, 125-page book detailing everything from sections to composers in a fictional, pseudo-history of "Band." If you’re as into music puns as I am, a copy of The Guide to Band can be purchased here.
