Hello everyone,
welcome to another episode of TwoSet Violin.
- Mm-mmm! - Today we are gonna review some
dank memes of r/lingling40hrs!
- 266,000 Ling Ling wannabes! Let's go. - Nice!
Whoa...
No way!
Wow!
Whoa...!
Whoa...!!!
- Dude, the varnish! - The varnish!
Yo...!
- Oh, the strings! - Bro! No way!
Plot twist, the chairs in that recital hall are all cake.
Yeah, yeah, yeah and the floor...
And the floor's all cake.
- Dude, that was insane. - I kind of got hungry.
But I don't think it would have tasted great,
- I don't know how, but it looked amazing. - Yeah.
- Dude, I want to eat a cello. - Dude I'm getting hun...yeah.
Where would you start eating it from?
I reckon I'll take off the bridge, or the tailpiece.
- Chop the scroll off. - I think i'll eat the scroll first.
- Yeah, the scroll. - Maybe. Or the strings.
Pure sugar.
I was gonna say,
I wonder if you can play it, but then I realised
- the strings are like icing, so...yeah. - Yeah, it'll just snap, right?
And the bridge is incredible,
- and the whole varnish-looking thing was incredible too. - Yeah.
That's a work or art.
Would you guys eat it?
- Yeah, I want a birthday cake like that. - Damn.
- Oh, my god. - Oh, okay.
- Oh, there's so many things wrong. - Oh wait, wait, I just realised.
- There's only four lines! - Yeah, there's so many things wrong, yeah!
You know how when it passes the middle line
the stem on the left-hand side, you go down.
Yeah, well I thought that was the middle line,
- so I'm like, "It's okay." But then I realised... - Ahh, alright, but there's four lines,
- ...there's only four lines. - yeah, and then there's two notes,
E and F is in one note, kind of in between two lines.
Someone's got to...must've done this on purpose.
Sacrilegious.
- I know, it's so random, hey. - So random!
Yamaha motorbikes or pianos, why not both.
- I didn't even know they did saxophones, that's crazy. - Yeah, I know they do recorders.
- I think they also have harmonicas. - Hmm.
Did I read that right? Yes I did.
(Eddy) It's okay, it's okay.
- That hits home. - Try...try uh, twenty...
[Twenty] Five years.
It's like crying, it's like...
How long have I gone? 23, oh my god.
Oh my god...
I never thought the day will come that fast, where I'll be like...
...20 years of violin playing, you know, and then I realised,
"Hang on, I'm already halfway 20 through 30, like,
20...25 years."
I know it's a joke like we're dads, we're like...
...we're, actually...
...like our friends are becoming dads now.
Yeah, I just...
Life is a journey, and before you know it...
Before you know it, it's like,
"CoPyRiGhT! CoPyStRiKe!"
Just take our money, just take...
Take all our hard work, ugh, just take it.
I'm running out of energy, agh! They came at me...
Alright, yeah...
Yeah!
Yeah, man!
When we first made our first video on
- roasting like fake playing, like movies, - Yeah, yeah.
I always knew I kind of like made fun of it,
but also cool to see like everyone in the world
had the shared experience,
- like everyone gets it, like, "Oh!" - Yeah.
- It was just so...distracting for me, where it's just... - Yeah.
- ...especially when you're a musician. - Yeah.
- I get if you're not a musician, you might not notice it. - Hmm.
Wait!
Don't want to get copystriked, so...
- Can't keep playing that, sorry, yeah. - Oh yeah, sorry, because uh...
Even r/lingling40...
What even is this...? What the...?
Why [are] your hands like...
No, 'cause it's like blood, you know, just suck it out!
Suck it out, all of you!
Take it!
Doctor said just eat more meat!
Create more blood, it doesn't matter.
- Back to the meme! - Yeah, okay.
I have seen this before, I have never tried it,
- 'cause I'm too scared of my bow... - I would never do it on my bow,
- but I get it, it's a thing, it's actually a thing, yeah. - Yeah.
People are saying this feels illegal,
but actually I think it's inspired by like uh...
- I could be completely making this up, but didn't... - I think I know what you're going to say.
...really old bows have that kind of...
- Oh! Actually, no, yeah, Baroque bows back then... - Right? Like...
- ...they're not playing like this. - They're...not like that,
- but they're a lot more...able to play chords, right? - Yeah, the wood was kind of a curve this way,
and so you can actually kind of wrap it around.
- Yeah the tension of the bow hair, I think. - Yeah.
And also the bridge was flatter back then,
- think they're like that. - Yeah, that's true.
Probably made that up, but...
- Can Google it and let us know. - Yeah...!
- I think that cave is a bit too clean, - Yeah.
it needs some like graffiti, and like student booger,
- and like French horn spit. - Yeah I was gonna say,
- the ground needs to be sticky and smelly. - Ugh!
- And then the chairs need... - The curtains need to be like dusty with mothballs...
- Yeah, coffee stains on the chairs, dust... - Yeah, yeah, yeah, then...
Tears on the ground.
- Whoa! That's sick! - Oh, yeah! We saw this!
I saw this, it's amazing.
u/Yuuri1405!
- Thank you for the amazing artwork. - Wow, that's a great depiction of it!
It's like the moon...
- We're looking... - Yeah, we're looking at the moon.
- Nice! - Nice, cool!
- I don't get it. - Do, re mi, fa.
- Oh, avocaRE! Oh, that's funny. - Yeah.
- I thought avo-care, like... - Avo-care...avo-care, yeah.
- Medicare. - Avoca-mi.
Avoca-mi...
Avoca-fa!
Noice! I want avoca-la!
Not Coca-Cola, avoca-la!
Avoca-ti!
- I feel like we've seen something similar before. - Yeah, same.
- Yeah, just every year you guys have to remind us that, but yeah. - Yeah.
- Dude, my hair looks messed up. - Yeah...!
Oh, that's cute.
Yeah, it's like our Dress Our Instrument Challenge we did
- a couple years ago. Yeah, that was the... - Oh, yeah, yeah!
Do you guys remember that?
For those people that have been with us for two years?
- We did this #DressMyInstrument challenge, - Mmm.
- it was pretty cool, - Yeah.
everyone started dressing up their instruments.
Oh yeah, the freaking leg work, hey.
- I still remember, like that caught me by surprise, - Yeah.
- how much leg work it is. - It's hard to coordinate.
Especially when you don't reach, you're like...
Oh no!
And then like your centre of balance is literally all on your butt,
- Yeah! - 'cause everything's floating, and you're like...
And you don't want to...yeah, you can't slip!
(Brett) Yeah, of course, the...whoa!
(Brett) Sorry, oh my god.
I don't know why it's in quotation marks, but sure.
That's so nice of you, thank you.
Thank you.
I remember reading that comment on the comment section,
and that means a lot,
because we really killed ourselves for that project.
I mean, we didn't "kill" ourselves,
- but metaphorically, a lot of late nights. - Oh.
I feel like it's been happening since 8 years ago.
Nah, I'm joking, just joking, just joking!
I love what I do!
It was great, and it wasn't actually just us as well,
- like the whole crew...stayed late to shoot. - Yeah.
- Oh yeah, director, I remember there's like one day - Director...
- when we spent 16 hours flat, editing. - Yeah.
We're really glad everyone liked the video, and it means a lot.
To be fair it's because you guys are here too,
- that's how we can do these...crazy projects. - Yeah.
- Yeah... - Damn it, Rachmaninoff, why you do that.
- Yeah. - I mean, Paganini as well, dude.
Big hand privilege.
Yeah, big hand privilege!
- 1.7 thousand. - Well let's see it now, huh?!
You better have done it!
Sounds like Davie504.
Just kidding!
(both) OHHHHHH!!!
It's pretty good, I'm pretty impressed.
- I used to do it on like rulers, or like... - Yeah!
Yeah.
You know what I also used to do?
Don't do this at home.
Sorry mum and dad.
I destroyed the wall in our house.
Can you guys see, I have a pencil on the side on the...
- ...of the table, like this? - Yeah.
Then I go...
- Why? - And then it would go...
And I try to aim, like for spots..
(Brett) It's like a trebuchet.
It's got nothing to do with music!
I know, it's like a catapult, but I don't know,
I just remembered, playing with stuff.
And I made like 50 holes in the wall, like...
Wa-pow!
- You know what I just realised? - What?
It's almost four years since r/lingling40hrs.
June 11th.
We should do something!
- What should we do? - What are we gonna do?
Okay, so we just had a little 30 second discussion,
we thought it would be really cool.
If you've made it this far in the video,
we're gonna give you a really secret thing,
a TwoSet Apparel 10% discount code!
That's right!
We're not even going to put in the description,
or announce it anywhere else,
just the fact that you actually watched this video.
The code will be called...
And you get a 10% discount code on TwoSet Apparel,
just a small celebration.
- But only for 24 hours. - Yeah, only for 24 hours, so,
if you see this video, awesome! If not...
Oh, you missed out.
Last few memes.
Says...roughly 4.5% of the pie chart.
Clarinet people, do they actually say that?
- 'Cause that's pretty...pretty funny, yeah. - It's pretty funny, yeah.
That's pretty funny.
So this is an actual...someone put this in Singapore.
- Wow. - It says, "Master the violin in only 20 years!"
- Whoa. - Nice, I like that.
- That's the most honest ad I've seen in my life. - Yeah.
Straight to the point.
Bro, Teacher Frank just hacked it!
Everyone that watched r/lingling40hrs
just got your violin teaching ad.
- I really hope you're actually a good legitimate teacher. - Yeah, I hope so too, right?
But respect for the ad, that's funny.
Alright, that's it for today!
Thank you so much for watching, everyone.
As always, as this ad says,
tenacity, hard work, humility.
I say "humidity". Humility!
- Singapore! - Yeah, I'm feeling really humid right now!
And on that note, go practice,
and we'll see you guys next time.
Bye-bye!
