This says it all, I suspect:
Bonus points if you can look menacing. And honestly, you don’t even need to be very GOOD at the tuba. In fact, it might be better if you aren’t.
Just say "no" to lederhosen. :mrgreen:

Is anyone else besides me signed up for this gig? Seems like a fun time. Not to mention, free beer!

Certainly everyone is waiting for a wrap-up.

While the brewery social media folks had a storyline in mind, the talent that showed up didn't quite match their vision. (Hard to look "menacing" as a tubachick in a skater skirt, a shark costume, Tubaerobics leotards, Mardi Gras colors...)

Charts were sent out, and we ran them...but the videos used MIDI tuba sound.

Some wag posted a comment on the "get your tuba on" vid about bringing an ax to the actual event. The pub said sure, but in the morning when there'd be more room.

Wondered how that turned out. Thanks for the report. The world is a better place with tuba chicks in it.

Maybe I should check this sub more often; not sure if I could have snuck the cimbasso in... :mrgreen:
