Ya. It sure is limited. My own band directors are completely against it. So that does out a damper on things but carry on lol.
I don't understand why people are so against it. It a different concept of tuba playing and shows people that a tuba can do a lot more then the om-pa BS.
So in a way you could say I'm trying to make a point to other people that a tuba can overpower a whole entire ensemble if in the right players hands. The biggest bell in the band+ a louder player=nothing but bass.

I'm gonna keep on working on developing that edgy style, after my lip heals lol, got a minor bump on it, nothing big.

OK... care to enlighten me?

Oh wait, what am I thinking? TubeNet members don't like to offer helpful information...

No, I don't care if you're enlightened, but I can think of these off the top of my head:

... It's a pretty limited style, no? ...

It depends on who you're playing with.

You mean with a good or bad ensemble.

hm, are you talking about the first soloist? If so, yes he sounded like a bass vuvuzela (which can be cool at times).

I can't think of any times when that would sound cool! Those things are annoying as hell!!!
And to turn a musical instrument into an annoying vuvuzela is just plain WRONG!!!
Why would anyone want a sousaphone to sound like a giant kazoo or air horn?

[Tuboss2]

Well on 2nd thought; yes they are. Watching soccer games and hearin that s*** kills the whole game for me.
Now, it could have been the Camara as well, because you know how camaras and tubas are...

I prefer to combine Camaros and tubas. Sometimes even chimeras and tubas.

Why are you skipping summer school to post here?

[Tuboss2]

Well, I'm not in summer school because I actually take care of my grades during the school year.
I could go if I wanted to get ahead but I'm a tuba, too lazy to do any of that.

I'm certainly no Rabelais, so could I really shoot that high over your head? I'm upgrading your trolling from accidental to deliberate.
