I froze when I read that two tubas were destroyed, but when I saw they were just sousas, I was relieved. Just kidding. :wink:

Mike Keating of the Fort Riley Fire Department said the parachutist and one of the musicians suffered sprained ankles. One band member was knocked unconscious and another had neck and head pain. He added that two tubas were destroyed."
Destroyed? Those horns aren't destroyed. Send 'em to Bloke and he'll have them done for Monday morning.

Right?
