What can we do to build our user base? I believe that TH has something like 70k registered users. We only have 130 to date.

Better to have quality than quantity. Of TH's 70k, how many actually are actively visiting the site? I think more and more TM members will keep trickling in over time. Also, as content builds, people will end up here in threads by googling topics being covered here.

We can get a good sticky going for "How to Breathe."

And let us not even get started with English English vs American English.............

The WORSE case of rectal prolapse I've ever seen! Hell's bells, the damn thing looks like it has fibrosis as hard a brass.

Is that what is known as a "Culohorn" ?

One of my favorite vintage trumpets is a '39 Conn 12B Coprion that I found in original condition with about 95% lacquer. Great player and love the look of copper.

Conn has made some great trumpets and cornets and you can still find some beautiful ones out there for a reasonable price.

Enjoy your Vintage One !! Great horn from a great trusted seller !!

World Champion Boston Red Sox !

I'm not sure if it would be considered an "off-brand" but I believe that Carol Brass offers a lot of bang for the buck. Also, anything sold under the brand of trusted sellers on this forum ACB (Trent) or Jaeger Trumpets (Ivan) though not "major" brands would be good players (because they would not let anything leave their shop that was not) at a fair value........

I went to see the Dr. because I was constipated but I never paid the bill.........

........it was a non-binding contract

Is what some people are calling "taking more air" in reality fatigue experienced by having to work harder at playing precisely with a trumpet that is less efficient?

How do I become an "Utimate" member?

..........aw c'mon, nobody

I have not read the books but I think that Game of Thrones is a great show that is well written and well acted.

I think that it parallels real life in that the good guys don't always win, crime and treachery often pay off (at least for awhile), bad people sometimes do good things and are sometimes re-deemed, and all humans are flawed. Strange and awkward alliances are sometimes needed to combat a common threat.........

Very entertaining with great twists.
