    • RE: A little humour

      Just found this great score to "Silent Night" Looks pretty authentic to me... I'll be rehearsing it tonight in preparation to the Holidays:

    • RE: A little humour

      This answer was submitted to a bonus question at U of Arizona by a student on a mid-term Chemistry exam to the question:

      Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?

      The student wrote: First we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell, and the rate at which they are leaving, which is unlikely. We can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume of Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionally, as souls are added.

      This gives two possibilities:

      1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
      2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

      So which is it? If we accept the postulates given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, "It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you", and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct... leaving only Heaven, thereby proving existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God!"

      THE STUDENT WAS AWARDED AN A+ FOR THIS BONUS QUESTION.

    • RE: Helloooooo

      @georgeb said in Helloooooo:

      @dale-proctor

      After my retirement 20 years ago my 6 figure income dropped to 5 figures on the low side. My reportable income hasn't changed much these past 20 years. But I get by.
      George

      George, I also retired after receiving my settlement on advice of my lawyers. I was employed as a University Professor (not a physician)... and actually the income I got for the patients I did bill for the University was LESS then what I made as a musician... NO KIDDING!. In my "retirement" I now receive my state pension, which in Ohio is a nice income, PLUS I now work as a fulltime physician with a hospital based medical system so now receive a physician's salary and retirement benefits. In so doing, to keep my tax burden down, I donate $10,000 a year each to two State Universities in Ohio (University of Cincinnati [a chemistry scholarship] and Wright State University [an arts scholarship]) that goes to pay an undergraduate student's tuition.

      Honestly, I would still donate even without the tax benefit as I feel so badly for the cost of a University tuition these days. It was so much easier to afford a tuition when I went to college 40 years ago.

      AND a NICE donation to TrumpetBoards will be coming again soon as well.

    • RE: Artist on BOARD

      Several years ago, I commissioned Wayne (BigDub) to paint this portrait of my dog Emily.

      4421b7ce-003e-4c0c-96d9-25347b74e830-image.png

      I am so rewarded by his excellent work, as now, this portrait serves as providing the fondest memory of this lovely spirit, as I had to put Emily down today do to progressive deterioration from a stoke she had last April. This picture is how I remember her. Wayne truly caught her personality in her eyes. Thank you Wayne!

    • RE: Flugelhorns...

      The performer (epically one as accomplished as you sir) know their horns best. However, perhaps Barliman, you may recommend a better baton for the conductor to use.

      I am betting it is a Sea Cornet. But if someone unexpectedly would step on it while wading in the water it would Be Flat.

    • RE: Set lists

      Just came back from a gig. No set list. We exclusively took requests from the audience. Heck half of the songs we didn't even have the music. The gig went fabulously well.

    • RE: "Ugliest" exercise?

      Let me generalize... It is ANY exercise that makes us use fingerings that include a 3; 2,3; 1,3 combination in rapid fire sequence! That third finger position is just a nuance to me when dexterity is challenged.

    • Torpedo Cases

      These are some of the most protective and yet eye appealing cases on the market. I have a family of cases, and am starting with the Outlaw Loredo, this one in gun metal black with the mute bag and the music pouch side bag. The Outlaw Lorado I have in brown is my travel choice as the Outlaw series fits in the overhead bins of the peddle jumpers I have to take out of Dayton to get to larger airline hubs.

      I don't mean to brag,
      but I am completely illiterate in 7 languages.

      moshe

      I'm very impressed. I'm fluent in 2 and can pronounce words from 4.5 🙂

      As I tell my patients... I know CPR and 23 other letters of the alphabet. That always instills trust in their physician.

    • RE: No real gains on anything more than 40-45 minutes of practice.

      @Doodlin said in No real gains on anything more than 40-45 minutes of practice.:

      ...My son wanted me to watch old school vs. new school muscle car 1/4 mile showdowns. He's gonna be a Ford guy, that's fine - put me on the list for a new Supra or Tesla...

      In staying with the theme to the thread (and not to be charged with taking the thread off track) this is the CURRENT muscle development I use when not working on my lips:

    • RE: Play Ball

      The Cincinnati Red Legs started it all, and while this isn't an opening day game ball, it has special meaning to me. In the 1965 mid-season, Ronnie Dale, the organist at Crosley Field for the Reds asked me to play a seventh inning stretch at a home game. This is a picture of the ball the team autographed for me in the dugout at the end of the game. On that ball, among many amazing stars you will note the names of Frank Robinson and Pete Rose. Off to the left side is a picture I use to back up this ball which is me playing the Hammond B3 at the club where Ronnie Dale played the organ when he was not playing for the Reds.

    • RE: Try this 6/8 exercise, at 100 bpm. If you got it, then try it at 120! (it's not as easy as you think!)

      @ButchA said in Try this 6/8 exercise, at 100 bpm. If you got it, then try it at 120! (it's not as easy as you think!):

      Whoa... I'll play "Potter's Clay" on my mandolin or my grandmother's heirloom violin, but I don't know about trumpet!! 😨

      ButchA, thanks for posting your initial exercise. I followed with the reply I chose to illustrate a point that these exercises are very useful and they prepare an individual toward integrating such exercises into the future performances. I found that all those years of working through rudimentary exercises really helped me in using the concepts, finger memory and rhythm approaches to these patterns that serve to enhance improvisational performance. Using patterns such as the one you illustrated has helped me identify my voice as a jazz improvisational artist.

      All those years of working through the painful rudiment work books has paid off in spades in preparing me to be the quality musician that am am today, many many years later. Exercises such has these have helped me to make it through tunes such as "Potters Clay" that is now demanded of me in my professional career as a musician. I might add, those two years I studied with Mick Denneson who had really inflicted pain in making me work through that transposition etude book paid off as well!
