On the ITEC 2006 homepage
http://www.denverbrass.org/itec/ there is a tuba in the top left corner. What is it?
I first thought it was a Meinl Weston 45SLP, but the leadpipe is different and there are too many spit valves. Is it a 2182 or am I totally on the wrong maker?
Just curious is all...

Hot breath onto cold steel = water condensation. Can YOU spit that much on your bathroom mirror with your mouth closed?

The question becomes:
Whence the water vapor?

Didn't you ever notice the large amount of "water" under
humid circumstances!?
(are you suggesting a better name is 'saliva key'? I though that was in Florida!

Put it in the right place, as on rotary trumpets, and call it an octave key.
