Explore the blues scale.

I usually don't play cornet, but when I do it is my old Holton with a period mouthpiece.

Another TM refugee here...

Did you hear about the music director that survived a lightning strike?

He was a poor conductor.

How I earned my way through college. On C trumpet.

Our sax player was from Mississippi, and it took around six months to understand his talk.

I bought a Christmas tree today. The salesman asked if I was putting it up myself. I said, "No, in the living room."

I am a great Bible expert and even know the name of Noah's wife. It was Joan. Joan of Arc.

Eggger makes piston and rotary f alto trumpets.

Oops! I should have seen that coming!

Dr GO: “When did it start?”

@dr-go I used to have eleven trumpets. Now I'm down to seven. Needed to sell four to afford the prescriptions you wrote me under a bridge away from cameras.

Well worth it.

"And if you want to play around on a mouthpiece safari first, go for the Arnolds & Sons range, sometimes marketed as Stoelzel. They are reliable copies of Bach favourites at incredibly low prices..."

Better made than some Bachs in the '90s. Using these mouthpieces allow us to try all kinds of modifications cheaply. Throat sizes (drill bit and a vice) can be easily enlarged, as well as the backbore (fingernail files for reamers).

A fun project is to match the popping frequency of the backbore to the cup, filing off the end of the shank until they match--then machine a Morse taper to the appropriate end diameter.

Adds zing to the response.

Better than any Super Bowl rendition in recent years.

Try a bunch of horns (including those not on your list) and let the right one find you.

@dr-go

I dig your lack of posture.

Start with Kansas City, then Oakland....

@dr-go Yes, let's have paintings for all the Superbowl losers over the years.
