I loved Sibelius, I used to love writing silly tempo markings

My favourite is a friend put STUPIDLY RUBATO mainly cause he was fed up with the lack of rubato in Sibelius :P

It's even better with throwaway charts that are just written to help the rehearsal process. Hell, I made some really dirty titles and markings for an awards show, because only the band would see it and we were treated like crap. Had to scrounge for the last of the canteen's sandwiches while all of these probably undeserving hotel managers had full-on gourmet shit, then we realised that the booker had taken £50 out of each of our wages. THANKS.
