No Walk To Far also describes my trek from my parking spot to the stadium. $10 for parking??? Highway robbery.

Why does the tuba soloist put down his contra, then just pick up another one? Is it keyed differently? More valves? Seems weird.

If I had to guess ... the one he picks up for the solo has a mic on it, so I'm assuming it's because they're worried about him marching around with a mic the full show and something possibly going wrong (like it falling off) by the time he gets to his solo.

I have a special place in my heart for this year’s Phantom. Their visual designer, Jacob Taylor, grew up in my hometown of Richfield, Ohio, graduated from my high school, Revere, and is a fellow Glassmen alum.

Hmm, I did not catch Kashmir in the show. Did I miss it or is it something they still need to add?

I did not hear it last night either.  Maybe it’s not the Led Zep one.

Makes sense… Although there are lots of soloists and even tubas running around through lots of shows with mics.  🤷🏻‍♂️ whatever it is, he’s really good!
