Allow me to introduce myself...
Hey Tube Netters, my name is Travis. I used to be on here several years ago but I've forgotten my old screen name. I'm an old fart of 41 years and have played the tuba since middle school. I'm not a pro, but I play whenever I can. I'm a BBb/Eb guy and my favorite horn is whichever one is in my face at any particular moment. Anyhoo, I'll be seeing you all around.

Gee, if my son is a 41 yr-old-fart, wonder what that makes me?

No offense intended on the "Old Fart" crack. I just feel that way sometimes. Bearphonium, let's see this avatar. I'm in need of one at the moment. Thanks guys.

I decided to go with a pic of me and my horn. It makes me look thinner and does wonders to my ugly mug!

I like your avatar. I was thinking of the one of you peering over the top bow. We'll see if we can't get a seasonal one today.

Not a bad pic... Can you photoshop the wedding ring off of my finger? I'll be wearing a much nicer one in January!

I noticed that...I'll see if Bob can do it. I am not much of a photoshop expert. Or you can pose again in January...
