One Man Band

So, after last Thursday’s small disaster with the Sax, I decided to play my cornet today at the basketball game, considering that the good sax was in the shop and I’ve split all my reeds. I was shocked at how many people actually commented on me playing cornet. At least half of the people in the band took a second look, and asked me what instrument I was going to play next. I might take up Brett on his offer and pick up the tuba just to see what people say.

But in either case, I hope the sax comes back from the shop pretty soon. We play at a double-header sometime next week, and if the men or women’s team win then we’ll go to Nashville for the NCAA tourney. I certainly don’t want to still be playing trumpet at that point, and will be more than happy to be playing sax again.

But after the game Jeremy and I ran around for a bit and did a few errands. I ran by the Best Buy in Hoover, and that one didn’t have the controller I was looking for either. What’s a guy got to do to get the things he needs?
