Woodwinds, Brass, and Harmonica

[sunburstbasser]

I've got a pair of trumpets, an ancient Conn student model and a more recent Bach TR200. I've also been borrowing a school Yamaha and even a flugelhorn.

I'm selling the Bach this summer and getting something decent. I'm leaning towards Kanstul right now, maybe Schilke.

Its a good thing we got this forum. Now I don't have to register at another one:thu:

I'll actually be switching from bass to trumpet as my major instrument next year.

I started playing alto sax in the 5th grade and I had a 14 block walk to school. It was pure torture carrying the sax all that way.

I am totally with you on that one. Although it's not quite as bad as having to carry a sousaphone in the Cherry Blossom parade in DC though. And having an asshole band director who makes the band march the whole entire way back to the buses. :mad:

Talking about asshole dierctors, my 8th grade band director used to throw his baton at us kids who played the wrong notes or just sounded bad. :mad: He's lucky nobody got their eye taken out with his temper tantrums.

If he did that now? And with my son???? :evil:

I would just like to say, moving the "this forum blows!" thread to OJ was a beautiful move!

I play saxophone, mostly Alto and Tenor, with a bari on occasion. Funny thing is I think I'm a much better player on sax then on guitar, even though I've been playing guitar about twice as long as saxophone.

Hi all!

I'm primarily a keyboard player in a weekend band, but bought my first tenor sax three years ago with an unexpected tax return. I played trombone from gradeschool thru college jazz band, so I had the breathing/tonguing down pretty much, just needed to learn sax fingering. I decided not to use it on stage until I could make it sound better than a "synth" sax patch, that took about two years. Still making a few wrong note choices and squeaks, but it sure is fun and the crowd seems to dig it.

Bought a fire-sale-priced soprano about a year ago, but haven't done too much with it (yet).

I've got a Jupiter Artist tenor (silver w/gold keys), with Dukoff metal mouthpiece, #2 plastic reed, and the new Samson Artist clip-on wireless mic.

Looking forward to this new forum!

[Thunderbroom]

I'm planning to get one.

Political correctness found its way it seems.

You're obviously wrong.

Just look at the package.

If your conception of a flying forum implies 10 girlie threads on each page then no, it probably isn't going to take off.

I'm just pissed because he won't even argue back.

It's less fun to just argue one side...:mad:
