Thank you, LoyalTubist. :)
This is gonna be great. The world will have this day to celebrate tubas and tubatooters as the heavy metal, heavy hitting, overweight national treasures that we are.
Tomorrow, TUBAS RULE!

Now, where's that picture of the guy looking fondly up at the bell rim of his tuba, which has been photoshopped so the bell is actually a full pilsner glass....

Ah, yes: burritos and beer. I won't even need my tuba for the next band rehearsal - just a chair with a hard wooden seat!

I made the mistake of telling my wife that today is National Tuba Day.
She told a friend of hers that stopped by and her friend asked, "Isn't it rather presumptuous of them to celebrate it on Cinco de Mayo?"
My wife answered, "I'm not surprised. Tuba players are a bunch of blowhards anyway."

Sounds like grounds for divorce, to me.
