.... Formed a new brass quintet. Had our first rehearsal yesterday. Lotsa good vibes - I think we're gonna keep ourselves.  :rotf:

Some names being bandied about:

On the cheesy side:

"All Lacquered Up"
"Pipes, Pistons, and Slides"

On the more esoteric side:

"Highway 63 Brass Alliance"
"63 Brass Coalition"

A bit more formal:

Central Missouri Brass
Mid-Missouri Brass
Opus Five
Missouri Brass [Quintet]
Harmonium Brass [Quintet]

We'll figure something out.  :hyper:





How about the "Hornblowers" ?? :-)

ha ha ha... my sister chose this horrible powder blue color for her 1984 Chevy Cavalier.  At least she got a decent paint job for the money, but DAMN that was just an awful color.

Here's an example of my day... I get a call from a customer in Texas having a problem with his POS, and the guy has a really bad stutter on top of not being a native English speaker.  After trying to figure out what this dude was trying to tell me for about five minutes, I ask him if there's anyone else around to take the call.  He hands the phone off to the only other guy around, and THIS guy has a speech impediment. :banghead:

Nope, that would get us confused with the Navy-type Hornblower. Remember Captain Horatio Hornblower?

We couldn't have that now, could we.

"All Lacquered Up"  - sounds like a bluegrass band.

How 'bout "Brass Monkeys".   :rotf:

My old house had lots of wallpaper....almost the entire first floor. The upstairs was lots of different colors.

My house now? Before we moved in, I had all the walls painted the color of an ivory wedding invitation that I had received in the mail....it's about the color of french vanilla ice cream. All the woodwork (and there is a whole bunch of it!) is stained a really dark color...sort of between a walnut and a mahogany. And I don't have a single window with anything over it.

The walls had been painted a deep yellow everywhere on the first floor and made the house so dark. Heavy drapes at every window. The house sets way down below street level surrounded by trees and it was sooooo dark in here! Not anymore! :-)

Toasted, have you ever even seen a skin flute? Neither have I  :rotf: 

I've seen appendages that someone called a skin flute, but I've never seen one that fluted.

That's got to be bizarre. To have heard of something that doesn't exist - over and over and over again.
