So your new Monette
didn't make you a big star?
Expensive lesson.

Aim that double C
at the lead bone player's head
and you'll part his hair.

Bad intonation!
If you can't match my tuning
you should play trombone.

Shiny new mouthpiece
Will you give me more high notes??
Disappointment soon.

Eating a large meal
right before you play trumpet?
I won't sit in front.

Hosaphone(tm) question:
When saying the name aloud,
is the (tm) silent?

You have a question?
Look at Jim Donaldson's site
where content is king

That fancy lip balm
may make your lips feel good now...
More swelling to come!

Playing second chair
does not give you license to
play up an octave.

Is that your mouthpiece?
It looks like you drilled a hole
into a quarter

lone three keys confuse
on twisted tube of metal
signed, a pianist

-- Bryan Holloway

Poor trumpet player
If he applies more pressure
His head might explode

What now, a quintet?
Jeff's endurance on trumpet
must be suffering

Mouthpiece discussions
are drowning out your attempts
to hit on my date

Tuning slide changes
don't seem to have an effect
on your chop problems

Clearly something's wrong
no sound comes out of Jeff's horn
when he tries to play

Piccolo trumpet
Oh little horn of madness,
Please play well today

-- Nick Hansinger

Bobby Shew once said
the secret to great lead
is passing away parts

-- Alan Keith

I hit the high C
and I held it for a while.
Then I hit the floor.

-- Liz Delcamp
