Have you ever experienced a band concert with no trumpets? We had four measures in the middle of one piece that sounded kind of like............................................................................. Ummmm... yup. That's what it sounded like! Then the trombones came back in with the counter-melody. But what I want to know is, why did the audience clap for the invisible trumpets and stop clapping for the trombones??? I mean, c'mon! Always clap for the trombones! We're sensitive. (Did you fall for that one?)
Hmmmm... band director #2 announced that I have enough sass to make up for our missing trombonist... During the concert even. Sass is good, right??? Must be 'cause trombones are full of it! And when we have our full section back, we'll really whup those trumpets! (Whup would be the musical term for "play a lot louder". Trombones are also well know for whupping at "pp" signs...)
By the way, I love concerts!
I get to pretend to be a grown up!
Right down to my toes!
Well... almost!
And one more quick kidbit...
Apparently, the wait for pie was a *little* too long for kiddo #3...
Have a fun day!
