What not to bring to an audition...

Adapting a saying from poker: "Look around the ensemble. If you can't spot the jerk...it's you!"

My (to remain nameless, but I'm sure previously mentioned) alma mater had a notorious feud between the "throats" and "musicians".

My favorite story:

I'm in a practice room one day next to a male throat who was working on a solo. He was practicing this run that ended on a G above the staff (I think). This guy was screaming these notes out over and over agian, and I was getting annoyed. Blasting The Ride at FFFF didn't seem to phase him, so I needed a new way to ***k with him. Therefor I decided to blast Fs and C#s when he was about to hit the top of his run.

Two minutes later, he switched practice rooms. However, I didn't stay in my room much longer because I had blown my chops.

Well worth it .

For those who do not seem to know:

Tool = Male Genitalia

And for those who might have a passing interest in my views:

Vocalists are called Throats by many players, including myself.

And in many, many cases:

Throats = Tools

That's DEEP man......

Side note: The pic says "made in the USA". Can you imaging what the person printing those must think? Probably thinks "Tubenet" is a porno site!

You mean it's not!!! What have I been doing wasting my time here, then!?
