And the rest... as they say... is history.

Something a little similar happened to Dream's 03 bari soloist in "Malaga" atr one of the early shows.

He;s playing the beginning of the slow solo and his spring breaks....daaa daaaaaaaaaaaa da WAWK...

He ended up grabbing the valve button and pullingit up to get through it!

For the rest of teh season as we were about to head over to the show site..."Parker...check your spring!"

why don't i remember that? maybe i was busy pushing andy around the field....

jan

someone STILL owes me for that broken rifle....

All I remember were the splinters flying...wasn't it because someone had placed a horn case (a bari, IIRC) as a yard marker and it was in the way??

hmmmm....and who could have done such a thing? why, didn't we have perfectly good line markers....in someone's trunk....no where near rehearsal....?

jan

yep, you know....

I don't, actually...

Don't remember the yard markers...I bought some for the corps, but that was in 04.

i split my finger wide open during a show once. i played bass, and i was a loud attack in the show. my ring finger got caught between the mallet and the rim and didn't fare well. but i didn't tick the run
