It's the deadliest US storm since Katrina. Terrible. I have been assigned to SC. What I have seen so far is a lot of this: https://tubaforum.net/viewtopic.php?p=70783#p70783 Many residents have told me stories of how they just happened to go to the bathroom or fell asleep in the living room right ...

Anybody remember how many pro players used to be on the old forum? Yup, Bloke got rid of almost all of them. :smilie2: Did the pro players appoint you as their spokesman? Really, that comment reminds me of the "Nyah, nyah, nobody likes you!" kind of talk I've heard 8-year-olds say when they're ...

World War Two-ba: An alliance of the Americans, British and Swiss (yeah, sure) vs. the Germans

YAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!

DIEGO IS THE MAAAAAAANNNN!!!!!!!!

I AM SO HAPPYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Would you mind posting a photo of that? I'm curious as to how Miraphone did the vents.

I really like mine, but it could benefit from a cut. Or a Mike Johnson leadpipe.

On my Martin Mammoth, that F is sharp. The E right below it is flat. The rest is very good.

Klezmer.

Mr. Diaz led the Latin Power Quartet at the Army workshop. Amazing, fun, and he is quite the entertainer!

I don't know if this is your provider, but their energy audit is free. I would bet it's a good source of info.

It's a tough call about your house. It's so beautiful and full of character. Lots of space to work and play, but lots of volume to heat and cool. An energy audit could identify the most cost-effective ways to reduce heat loss in the house. This new world of remote work has boosted the value of a lot ...

Yep, that's me. But I've done just fine. I certainly don't ignore money, as it is a part of our daily life. But I know it is just a tool. As with any tool, it can be used wisely or misused foolishly. Also, just focusing on a tool and forgetting a larger purpose is a bigger mistake than not having ...

I just recently started playing Eb tuba after playing euphonium since 1978. Eb is almost as nimble as a euphonium and still sounds tuba-ish. Lots of fun!

I personally know some tubists, in prominent full-time orchestra and opera positions, who also have other businesses- welding, part owner of a coffee shop, instrument repair and sales. In my early years as a school band director, I delivered pizzas part-time. I was also a small-time landlord for 20 ...

Your kids have done great, obviously with good guidance from their parents. Of course, nothing is guaranteed: the twists and turns of life are unpredictable. I think that, with a focus on eternity and how to live right, the material needs will be met. “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your l ...

My majors changed in decreasing order of practicality: First- Electrical Engineering Second- Music Education Third- Euphonium Performance (the planet's most unmarketable degree, especially for me as I could not join the military) I started in EE thinking I could make a good living and play music on ...

We saw them at the National Gallery of Art. They were wonderful! We heard a different tuba player, who was awesome.

I will never sell my 40-year-old Willson 2900 euphonium because I bought it from Brian Bowman while I was studying with him throughout high school. He picked it out from a batch of 14 and sold it to me at his cost. I hear the new Adams euphonium has better intonation, but I just don't play enough to ...

I had a great time. The weather was very nice and, just down the road from the Patton Officers' Club, there was an incredible view of the Capitol, Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, Kennedy Center, and the Old Post Office. The highlights for me were the Latin Power Quartet ...

The Latin Power group was fantastic! And so much fun.
