Re: Burning Tuba
David Silverman's flaming sousie is in the background.
I joined the Burning Band last week (on helicon) and did some wonderful gigging with our 5-tuba bass section, including two flamers. David Richoux was there also. Hope to see some video and stills later this month.

Re: Burning Tuba
I was surprised how well the horn sounded without much of a bell! The flame could shoot up about 15 feet. David Silverman's "Tubatron" has more of a fan shape across the top of the bell and he can control it a bit better, but it does not flame up as much.

Re: Burning Tuba
This is most of the Burning Band's low brass section. The pic was taken at the 2012 Burning Man Festival at the French Quarter.
