@barliman2001 praying for you

Wow you are selling a lot of stuff - your health ok? Praying...

Ah yes - we served as missionaries in Honduras for 12 years and there is no sound quite like 40,000 people in the national stadium with what sounds like 40,001 vuvuzuelas on hand. I have a couple in our house and my granddaughters love making us jump when they give one a blast.

On a similar 'note', I have seen one single conch shell silence 40,000 people in that same stadium - ¡asombroso!

Hi! If younger people work in all keys, that will benefit them if later in life if they develop an interest in jazz improvisation - improvising creatively involves changing keys quickly and effectively

@SSmith1226 thanking God with you

@EZ_Toner a bigger concern would be if liquids flow uphill at your house

@SSmith1226 well thats great news - sell now to avoid the old joke about not wanting our wives to sell the stuff for what we tell told we paid for the stuff LOL

@administrator I endured a horrible hour of hard sales with him - when I declined to pay his exhorbitant price because I am supporting our son who has fallen on hard times he told me we should make our son survive on his own. His last words to me were '"I'm not going to help you anymore because you are being ridiculous" LOL

@55Yr-Comback thanks so much!

@55Yr-Comback great news thanks! looking him up now - focal dystonia is no fun

That is so cool

@Dr-GO good one

Congratulations on coming back after 55 years if I am interpreting that correctly

Everyone's teeth, jaw and lip structures are different, so I would guess there is not a method that works for everyone

I'm very pragmatic - use what works for you after trying different things. The proof is in the sound - stick with one mid-range note and experiment. Try to find the setting which gives you the sound you like best.

If you can find a setting that gives you a good sound and also seems relaxed to you, you are on the right track

I think people with a thicker lower lip and thinner lower lip tend to make good sounds more easily, but there are hundreds of pros with all kinds of lip structures

I have Musicians Focal Dystonia, and after 40 years of great jazz experiences, nationally and internationally, I cant make a good sound anymore at all - sure miss it, and being part of this discussion board is emotionally healing for me - no worries, tho, the Lord allowed me to experience wonderful things and relationships thaks to the beloved horn - thanx, all
