Bb (maybe) sousaphone from Uttar Pradesh.

I suppose this really is brass, painted white to look like fiberglass. Or for some other reason, likely, but I hope that's it.

I find it interesting that artificial music instruments from a Third World country have to be accompanied by a description of what they should be.

I guess I should have paid more attention when I was playing these things in high school. Then I wouldn't need the education today.

Well, I didn't play in high school, so it's news to me. For example,

Next time the sun comes out (I'm in Seattle), I'll have to check it out to see the resemblance.

Does the sun face the opposite direction in India?? :shock:

If you stare at the sun long enough, they both look the same! :shock:
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

When scrolling thru sousas on eBay, I know how to limit them to only the ones sold from the USA, but I wish there was a setting for "Show me everything but this ridiculous Indian crap!" I swear, they list SO MANY of them that entire pages are almost all Indian sousas with maybe one or two real listings hidden in there to make it interesting. Sheesh!

OK - THANKS FOR LISTENING ;0)

I'm with you. That "US Sellers Only" tickbox is a truly remarkable piece of sorcery.
