NOT a tuba player like Bloke.

NOT a bass horn man like Bloke.

NOT a tubaist like Bloke.

NOT a tubist like Bloke.

NOT a tuba artiste like Bloke.

NOT an amateur philosopher like Bloke.

NOT a professional like Bloke.

NOT a professional amateur like Bloke.

NOT in any way better than Bloke.

There needs to be a none of the above option for us mere mortals.
