I mean anything is possible if they’re willing to pay for it

A trumpet properly played cuts directly to that bittersweet, blue part of my soul.

Hammond organ played well really makes me feel warm to the core

There is a great Spotify playlist for the Hammond.

user224, in I am to celebrate new years eve alone. How can I celebrate solo?
@user224@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Not sure what to recommend. Last year I spent it by listening to taxi drivers wishing happy new year to each other via their radios using SDR. But that was more like just 2 minutes as the new year came. Still, plenty of drunk phone calls around 1am.

Anyway, that’s probably not much of a fun activity, and it’s not likely you have SDR either.
Probably just watch some movies, order some better (in taste, not quality) food and enjoy those. Maybe go fire some quiet fireworks like fountains, if you fancy those. I say the “quiet” bit as a dog owner.

Chetzemoka, in What's your favorite instrument that really gets through to you?

Cello. No idea why. Yo-Yo Ma slays me.

cheese_greater,

HE may play the cello but YOU the one that gets played ;)

Golfnbrew,

For a bit of fun, find the YT of Sulek & Hauser “Welcome to the Jungle”

A lot of champagne I guess

catsdoingcatstuff, in what are your fun, low stakes new year resolutions?

I’m planning to walk 1000 km in 2024. Nowhere fancy, just around my neighborhood.

user224,
@user224@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

That’s just around 2.74km (rounded up) per day. So around 30 minutes of walking per day. Are you sure you’re not doing more than that already?

catsdoingcatstuff,

Ah… Sadly no. That’s why is my low stakes resolution. :) I work from home and I’ve gotten very lazy. I just roll from my bedroom to the office, down to the kitchen, and repeat.

JJROKCZ,

American workers have a lot of struggle getting walking in as their jobs don’t require hardly any. Walk to car, drive to work to park in garage and walk a few hundred feet to elevator, from elevator a few hundred feet to desk, repeat that trip home, make dinner, go to bed, repeat the next day. It’s even worse for remote workers as they walk from a bed to a desk at most, many remote people I know work from their bed (I could never…)

Fake4000, in What's your favorite instrument that really gets through to you?

Clarinets. Absolutely love those when played right.

FigMcLargeHuge, in I am to celebrate new years eve alone. How can I celebrate solo?

I am taking the metro train to downtown with my bike. I will ride around a little, stay for the fireworks, and then take it back home. Easy enough. You are obviously going through something so don’t make being alone on new years eve too significant. Stuff happens, and hopefully you come out of this stronger.

The music video for Baker Street is like a 1970s time capsule

OtisRamflow,

I played Alto in school, never really got into it. Then switched up to baritone, loved it.

Hobart_the_GoKart,

Bari sax is best sax

@j4k3@lemmy.world avatar

I treat it like any other day and ignore all events focused on relationships, but I’m partially disabled and unable to do anything social. Just do whatever you find interesting in life and ignore the “celebration” the memory will fade into the background like all the other days and you won’t have depressive repercussions due to self reflection.

@DessertStorms@kbin.social avatar

This might not be the answer you're looking for but the way I see it, it's just another day, and we generally put far too much pressure on it and on ourselves on it, and that it's perfectly fine to not do anything special.

If for your own reasons you really do want to celebrate anyway, try and make/order your favourite meal, think of a good movie or two that always make you feel nice, and spend your evening enjoying those, but most importantly - don't feel down or bad for being alone, there's nothing wrong with that, and even if it feels like there is, this one night has very little significance in the grand scheme of things.

slowd0wn, in What's your favorite instrument that really gets through to you?

Pedal Steel. First time I saw one played live was at a Bright Eyes show when I was in high school. I know they’ve been around for a long time and are prominent in country music, but watching and hearing it played in person just blew me away. I feel like the instrument conveys so much emotion in its sound

OP never specified what type of instrument. An Erlenmeyer flask is also an instrument. So is a stick 😂

_number8_, in What's your favorite instrument that really gets through to you?

pedal steel or any sort of slide guitar

HootinNHollerin,

Especially played by David Gilmour

Everythingispenguins,
