There was a person who lived near me who practiced the trumpet and I can't help but wonder if all those destroyed trumpets have been attacked by neighbors...

Can I make a drum corp if I can only play up to double G consistently

Yeah, just go up to Bloo and demand a contract. They HAVE to give it to you if you can play a double G

Look, I'll have some pitty for trumpet players when they can understand what dynamics are.

Wait, the whole damn brass section doesn't know what dynamics are. And neither did that timpani player when I sat in front of him in that one honor band back in high school...
