After 3 years I pawned my 'bone and used the money to buy a bass... best decision of my life? Quite possibly. |

| | | | I started out with one trombone. Then my teacher gave me another, then a music shop went out of their way to sell me one, then, the other day, a man at my church came up and offered to give me one free. I started wondering why people were so generous. Then I realized that they were unloading them on someone stupid enough to take them.
I hope my sister likes her christmas presents. |

The snake was probably on his way to a gig....... | Or, there are skid marks in front of the snake.
Hey, are we repeating ourselves?

He plays both, composes for the 'bone and he's a killer on fretless -- check out that Live CD
Which makes sense, isn't a trombone a kind of fretless horn? |
