finding money in your tuba...

[Nick Pierce]

It's the tuba fairy, closely related to the tooth fairy!

Money…that’s just the beginning of your success…just wait till they start throwing pantys...

Well, I don't remember anyone actually taking off their panties... but let's just say I've been living a rock-stah lifestyle and have eaten seafood at the buffet table more then enough times!

The proper response is, "My fans don't like to be encumbered with those... "

I do all the laundry in my household. When you start washing those things month in, month out, they lose their allure pretty fast. trust me.

I use a tip jar. People have asked me if they should put soft money down my tuba and I tell them it can be really hard to get out.
I followed Iiipope's example and played solo carols at Walmart last Christmas. When the bell ringer took her break she took the money pot with her. People kept reaching out to drop money in my tuba and I had to grab it out of their hands while playing. When the bell ringer got back my pockets were stuffed with money. She was happy to see how much.
Hot chicks don't hit on me since I got old and looking like a lizard but they dig the tuba sound and often stop by for a word with me. One bikini clad beach bunny at a pool party asked us to give her a c.d. My laughter must have hurt her feelings.

I've been consistently pulling out $1, $5, $10 and even a few $20 bills.

It must be the lure of the 186... Hunts Point chicks love it. If it was the Hirsh, you'd be talking about soccer moms in White Plains.
