no_itsnotadash Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 (edited) http://www.wwbw.com/ is pretty good. Gloves can be tricky, if your a low brass, baseball gloves (not mitts lol) work well for rehearsals. Cotton gloves I cannot remember where right off hand.

soccerguy315 Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 definitely go batting gloves (baseball) for rehearsal gloves... also mechanics (auto work) gloves work really well... 2 pairs will last you the season. For the normal music supplies, woodwind brasswind (wwbw.com), as mentioned, has good stuff. Obviously you don't want something very expensive if you are bringing it on tour.

I can't find a good place online, but I found that buying 2 pairs of nylon tuxedo gloves to split between rehearsals and shows was a really good thing to do. Rinsing them out every week or so, my 6 week old gloves looked better than all my corps mates' week old gloves at the end of the season - didn't lose their color or even begin to rip. Very durable and cost about 9 dollars a pair - typically at a tuxedo rental shop or something like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowtown Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 I often just use an online metronome, there are a few free ones out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildabeast Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Well, if you have a smart phone, you might be able to find a tuner/metronome application to put on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
