I had wasted a couple of months with guitar lessons (utterly unsuccessful), and a year or two on piano lessons (better but still ultimately unsuccessful). When the announcement came over the PA in my first day in Junior High School, "Those of you interested in joining the band should report to the Band Room at 2:30 tomorrow, with a parent," my feet took me there without my brain really understanding why.

The band director took one look at me, and saw a strapping lad with thick lips and an IQ slightly higher than a brick, and quickly initiating The Tuba Trap, which is taught (apparently) in every music education program. But that is another story.
