@administrator I don't know much about what has happened here but the admins at TH that received my messages were quite rude to not even bother to answer.

@Kehaulani
I was banned from TH a long time ago for some reason that the lords of TH never had the courage to give an answer.

@flugelgirl I appreciate your input. I have never seen alternate fingering directions marked this badly.

@flugelgirl Thanks, that was what I figured that is what the arranger was trying to say but it is notated extremely poorly. whoever did it can't even spell properly.

I agree that 1-3 is a better choice if that is the desired effect although using one valve could be faster and cleaner if one has good chop control.

Have you played the show?

I wasn't even involved. Signs of old age.

Does anyone know what is meant here? I can guess at a couple of different possibilities but one I can't imagine is why anyone would want to hear two trumpets play a stuffy and flat unison G.

The ornaments aren't high enough to be the Chaka Khan version.

@Bob-Pixley Not mean to me Bob. I've played a couple. One was absolutely the best piccolo I had ever played at the time. It might still be. IT WAS OWNED BY A CIRCUS CLOWN. I asked if he would sell it but he said that it was part of his act so he couldn't. AAAARGHHHH!!!!!

@flugelgirl That's pretty cool.

If someone posts their H.N. White mini Liberty that would just be plain mean.

@SSmith1226 oh man, that was great!

@Dr-Mark That is probably way it would go down Mark. I

@Niner The person I speak of his is a crook and I doubt that they will ever show up here. Unless this person is an anonymous user; I have never seen them on any forum that I have been on. If they wanted to take a shot at me they are welcome to try. I would like to make sure that they aren't ever able to steal from anyone ever again.

This happened on Fleabay around 12 years ago. Now that I think of it there is another one from the Chattanooga area from about the same time period.

I am constantly keeping an eye out for a certain person who is a reasonably well known trumpet player in NYC who I dealt with about 10 years ago. If that person ever shows up shows up here I will warn everyone about that particular person's dishonesty.

@administrator said in Best Valves:

Honestly, my Radial has the best valves. Those who know, know.

I know what you mean although I like the Olds Recording, Mendez model, valves also. I mean the Olds with the offset valves.

@GeorgeB

In other words, you don't have to know squat about academics in order to be a trumpet player.

Where's my purple font when i need it?
