NYC Tuba Christmas - tuba/sousaphone needed

Post by MrBasseyPants »

Hi all,

I will be in NYC when their Tuba Christmas happens on 12/9. I've always wanted to play in it, but I won't have a horn.

Is there anyone out there who will be playing, and perhaps have an extra horn I could use? Either sousaphone or concert horn is fine by me...and I am not picky as long as it's Bb and at least kind of works! :)

I would be more than happy to help offset your parking fees or buy you lunch.....

Thanks,
jc

I don't think it would fit in the overhead compartment :)

Anyone? :)

I am resisting the urge to buy one of the cheap travel tubas. :)
