Lots of interest, but no money yet.***Hello all! Been away for a while. I can’t play anymore and am shifting to bass guitar and upright electric bass. Selling the tubas. Lacquer body with silver, Jin bao larger bell. 2 tone chocolate /British tan leather bag I do have original bell and hard case too ...

Hello all. I too have a jazz group called Ain’t Misbehavin. Ha! Ours is a trio with me on Sousa and vocals,jazz trumpet and guitar/banjo. I’m the leader, so pick the tunes. Always happy for input from the guys. Playing the gigs is fun . It’s booking the gigs that’s the hard part. Yes, pay is tiny ...

Love mine. Most trouble free horn I’ve ever owned. Especially the valves and water dumping. Very little slide pulling. Valves have never stuck 1 time on 2 years

Regarding housing inflation: I’d be curious to see inflation by square footage and level of luxury. Austere/ middle / luxury. I think,but am not sure, this is a part of the problem. If royalty from 1-300 years ago could see us, they would be astonished and switch places with us, I bet.

In support: I sold my 836 and bought an 825vg 18 months ago. Very happy.
Pros: great sound with a bit of growl,great intonation- I no longer pull slides,with a few alternate fingerings. 95% of the spit comes out the main water key- no clink-clank in the rests(I pull 2 slides right before a session ...

Yep! It’s been a minute! Like maybe 15-20 years. I did run across your group on a search, but thought it was different enough and far enough away that I went with the name anyway. We have a good time and people like it, but a hard sell to book, as I knew it would be.

Cool

I started my own group with a jazz trumpet friend. Played with iReal pro for a while, now have a guitar/banjo,player( thanks to Tim Jackson for the sousaphone). People like it but still tough sledding to book gigs. But like Bloke said, no counting rests here! Tired after playing,singing, and ...

I’ve been having fun doing this: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100093070124479

Any of these mouthpieces available? Cancelled orders,someone received and a bad fit? Curious to try. Playing a Laskey 32b. I do like it, but the FOMO…

I’ve also gone to rotary b flat. Our reference recording had me sounding too poofy and diffuse. A lot of oooo,ooooo,ooooo. It was an Eastman 836, which I did love many things about. I can now “come forward “ in the mix when I want or sit back into the blend. I am a part time player and part time ...

I played the smaller one at itec in Knoxville . My thoughts were” this thing is fun and easy to get around on, but might need a main slide stick”. I would be interested in a q-series version.

That whole supply and demand thing- not in the musicians favor. Get yourself a well paying,hopefully satisfying, day job and play on the side.

My understanding is that the physics just isn’t there for a brass instrument to play in tune(which is an ever moving target- key of music, other musicians,weather,etc). Best you can do is find one with reasonable solutions. My f has a simple main tuning slide stick and a long main slide. I spent 3 ...

Per service orchestra audition committees can just be the conductor. Non union and no real rules. Full time orchestras,I assume, have more guidelines.
