If you clicked this link, you must obviously want to know more about me. I play trumpet in Marching band, Symphonic band, and Jazz Band, and also in the show choir combo. I camn play pretty much any brass instrument. Trombone is the hardest right now. XD If you wanna know anymore, just ask. I'd be willing to talk.

Hey we got another jazz cat in the club. I'm fairly new to the forums myself and trombone is my primary. So if you questions about it just PM. I'd be more than happy to help out. Just as warning: these people lick newbies. I don't know why, but they do, so beware. Lucky me I haven't been licked. Yet.

The lickings stop after the first bit, trust me. I don't lick anyways, I prefer stalking from a distance. Anyways, I'm going into my junior year, and I'm a clarinet, mallet player, although right now I'm getting ready to start my first year as the field commander...-bites nails-
Welcomeeeee!

Field Commander huh? Well good luck with that. I'd rather play my trumpet all... 5 years of marching band (started either grade year). But being a clarinet and all, i could see how you would wanna switch to something else. XD

That's weird.....I think trombone is by far the easiest to learn brass instrument, and especially the easiest to go back to after not playing for 5 months.
I am a jazz tenor sax player who marches trombone. Welcome to band geek world.

No No NO!!! You must learn trombone by using your ears you see... because even though you see "slide positions" they don't really exist, they're only relative. They're a LIE!! ;D
I'm a drum major by the way, so if it seems like I'm nuts sometimes, that's why.

lol I already knew that. XD If i didn't know that, people would make fun of me for sucking on a normal Bb scale. XD And my ears are "tuned" as well as an electronic tuner. I tune people by ear myself. I don't need no stinkin' technology. XD jkjkjkjk...

Well three of our four trombone players suck, mostly cuz they're new to the whole trombone thing. The other one just sucks. And one rocks out on his. He's the good, fourth one. XD
