RE: For the European Members
I don't see how there wouldn't be. In Germany, I conducted, at any given time, two city bands, a university band and a jazz band and played in another city concert band, jazz band and combos.
I lived near Kaiserslautern, Germany is a city of about 100,000 people. Prague has about 1.36 million people. Surely the opportunities are even better.
You'll find that in large cities there are sections of town, often going way back to when they were separate villages, that keep their identities and have their own musical groups. Furthermore, Prague certainly has surrounding villages that also have their musical groups.
Another thing you may find useful it that the people may look on you, at first at least, as something unique and show you more interest.

RE: Post Your Summer Gigs
Man, if I had a dollar for every time I played that. My first pay gigs were dances and some combo jazz. But I started playing in a "Soul Band" in the mid-sixties with Soul Man, Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay, Mustang Sally etc. Great music and great fun. Enjoy.

{'ve been to the opera in both Vienna and Munchen and it doesn't get any better than that.

RE: For the European Members
Beautiful women, good hearty food, good cross-section of arts. What more could a guy ask for? Czech it out.
(No, I don't live there. Just worked and visited.)

RE: Happy 4th of July 2.0
{'m not doing squat. But I'll share this blast from the past.
On July 4th during the 200th Anniversary of our country's founding, I was at Ft. McHenry in Baltimore harbor, home of the Star Bangled Banner. I watched a firework reenactment of the bombardment of the fort from a sailing ship that was in the harbour. On the ship, playing the National Anthem was the Tonight Show Orchestra and Doc Severinsen. It doesn't get much more overwhelming than that.

RE: How to "Clock" your mouthpiece
I don't play well enough for it to matter, and I suspect there other like me, but who fall victims to the placebo effect.

RE: How to "Clock" your mouthpiece
I always thought this was just another internet-based old wives' tale by people who had nothing better to do but his next-to-the-last turn surprised me.

RE: Headache because of out of tune music
Well, my first reaction is, if you are a guitar teacher why are you posting on a trumpet site?
To your question: stress can cause headaches. Guitar hell can cause stress. But if it persists, I would have a talk with my doctor since it could be something else.

RE: The Beatles Are Back, Sort Of
What, pray tell, is "deep fake"? Isn't this just digital overdubbing, or embedding, which has been going on for some time and is a recognised and legitimate technique?

RE: The Beatles Are Back, Sort Of
As I understand this, this is just a new voice added digitally. What makes that AI?
