In addition to Philly (see below) I heard from a very reliable source that he was at the first Cleveland audition (summer/2005).

Sometimes ya gotta do it just to stay in shape.
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Mr. Bishop played it on a Mirafone 184-5U. Technically, it's a contrabass tuba, but I don't think it qualifies as a "big horn."
