Moderators Kindness Posted August 24, 2008 Moderators Share Posted August 24, 2008 what a bastard JM5 is in a class as a trombone player. I presume he is being graded as a trombone player. I presume he is there to learn to play the trombone. Is the professor still a bastard for wanting JM5 to play trombone in the class? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the professor still a bastard for wanting JM5 to play trombone in the class? im in a class to improve my improvisation skills. i play the trombone and am fairly decent or so i have been told. if anything my bass playing is lacking and only because of my lack of playing in a band setting. hell if he would let me id bring my bongo drums in and play them:lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members solderjunkie Posted August 24, 2008 Members Share Posted August 24, 2008 i think he was just assuming that people who double on an instrument suck on their other instrument. I play bass, guitar, horn, and cornet... I don't think suck at any of them I play bass with Shaky DeVille, I played horn in the Pensacola Symphony, and cornet in the University of Florida Jazz Band.

Members poomwah Posted August 24, 2008 Members Share Posted August 24, 2008 just because you play more than one instrument doesn't make you worse on one... Hell I specialize in one instrument and I still suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
