1. A person who waves his arm infront of a bunch of musicians.
Normally, a conductor thinks the musicians that he is conducting is actully watching him.
But, in reality, more then half of the times, they are just wondering off or too busy sight reading their music.
2. A guy who has actully been through a LOAD of boring music theory class. Where he learned weird stuff such as what is a V7/V chord and how it will be resolved to a I chord in another key. Normally is WAY more knowledgeable then any other person that he is leading
