official announcement

Post by bloke »

Weril four valve sousaphones may be sketchy, but they are not lightweight, and they sound about as good as Conn 20K sousaphones - which makes sense, considering that they're so very similar in shape and size.
As crappy as their pistons are, the porting is actually quite elegant.

Announcements! Announcements! Announcements!
We’ve got some—we’ve got some—we’ve got some things to say,
We’ve said them—we’ve said them—we’ve said them anyway!
We’ll say them—we’ll say them—we’ll say them all day long,
Just listen—just listen—to our announcement song!

At least that's what I remember from Scouts

This thread has already gone off the rails !!!

You were supposed to stick with my boring and nonsensical topic, rather than changing it to another boring and nonsensical topic. :slap:
