The song "Big Bottom" by Spinal Tap comes to mind.

Great song, but hard to arrange for tubas! (I have tried...)Mojo workin' wrote:The song "Big Bottom" by Spinal Tap comes to mind.
A local SF Bay Area group, The Blow Kings (now disbanded) did a medley of Big Bottom/Fat Bottoms/Big Butts that worked pretty well - they also did a 7 Bari-Sax version of the Munumunah song made famous by The Muppets.
A group that good was destined to failure.

Re: The sound of the apocalypse...
did anyone work out where this video was made very interesting video would love to know what country/region has that many heavy brass and bari saxes willing to travel they must have a vibrant amateur music scene.
Cant carry a tune but I can carry a tuba.

Thanks Brazil makes sense as all of the comments were in Portugese so I suppose most of the tubas must be Werreils ( don't think I Speke that one right)

The most imopressionante is that people who attend that church like the Conn Tubas 2XJ. But I have to admit I have a lot of models Werill that is a clone of the Yamaha.
Thanks all
