notelvis Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Names withheld or changed to protect the egos involved - This was a brass instructor speaking to another instructor some 20 years ago - "Yeah, Bob's playing has improved so much he's as good now as he thought he was a year ago!"

goldingna Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 You know, I really think Frank Williams deserves his own thread when it comes to this stuff. Frank Williams to an Assistant Director.... "The show? Don't you worry about the show. You just get the mother ####in' busses on the road." Greg Cesario in 98... "What?!? I flew 1,500 miles to see this?!?!?!" Bob Smith (also in 98)..... (Some girl had a shirt with a heart on it) Bob: "Girl with the hard-on, move one step to your left." Girl: "But my dot book says that I'm 3 and a half off of the line." Bob: "Dot book? DOT BOOK?!?!" Bob then descends four levels of scaffolding faster than I thought any human could, runs across the field, and halts his sprint only as he is nose to nose with the girl. Bob (Screaming wildly): "I DON'T GIVE A #### WHAT YOUR DOT BOOK SAYS, I SAID MOVE OVERRRRR!!!!! Bob then grabs her dot book and begins ripping it in half, saying "This is what I think about your dot book." Priceless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
