Alas... I'm not very deep.

Or dark.

Or secret.

That's a hard question...
Thanks for playing!

Secret #2: it's sell/buy time again. You can own the best tuba in the world, but if it's not a good match for you, then it's simply time to move on.

Might be generous to call some of the groups i play with organized.

Definitely would be to call me that.

So we get along fine!

I suggest an arranged tuba marriage.

The TNFJ will pick a tuba mate for you.

It will be yours for life, until sweet merciful death do you part.
