Immprobable tuba sightings
I was flipping channels this morning and did a double take on a Sabrina the Teenage Witch episode. It was set in a high school band/orchestra/music room and on a shelf on the back wall was a 2J. I'm pretty sure it wasn't a 5J as I froze the screen and studied it for a while. I can understand how in Hollywood a 2J might surface pretty easily with a call from the prop department, but the improbablity of a that tuba in a HS setting struck me as humerous. 

I am fortunate to have a great job that feeds my family well, but music feeds my soul.

Re: Immprobable tuba sightings
There are a couple of tubas in the beginning of the new Harry Potter flick. There are two tuba players (no band) on the pedestrian bridge in London. I was watching the movie with my tubist friend, and this was my face when I saw it:

Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Isn't that sculpture in front of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Japan? Does anyone know if the artist just canabalized a couple of sousas or is that a scratch work? From the looks of the grass, or lack thereof, directly in front of the bells, I think there may be some interactive properties to it as well. I saw another photo in which it appears there are speakers in the bells.windshieldbug wrote:

Re: Immprobable tuba sightings
These things are similar to something in our local park; a cone shaped device approx. 3 ft. above ground connected to plastic pipe going into the ground and emerging some 10 ft. away into a similar device for kids to stand at each end and talk/whisper and experience how sound can be transmitted through such a thing.

I think those sightings alone made the movie for mebloke wrote:I'm pretty sure (when blond-guy-what's-his-name - the very first time - went into the storage room where the what-cha-ma-call-it cabinet was) there was an instant where there was a shot of an old tuba sitting on its bell.The Jackson wrote:There are a couple of tubas in the beginning of the new Harry Potter flick.

Sadly, creating horcuxes is an extremely dark art. Do you think Dumbledore has killd anyone in his past?bloke wrote:' seemed to me (tubas and sarcasm aside) to be "low budget" (though l-o-n-g) compared to all of the other H.P. movies, and little more (seemingly) than a "set-up" for what is to come in the final movie. Of course (somehow...though I haven't read any of the books) surely the headmaster will have - sometime in the past - "hidden part of his soul" somewhere, so he'll be able to come back from the dead...TubaCoopa wrote:I think those sightings alone made the movie for me
I know everyone wanted him to come back to life after that sixth book was released...
(has read all them books at least 4 times)

This thread reminds me of of the thread about that one episode of House.

I was sorting through my clip file and noticed this:
