Loved it, really great solo, thanks. I'm an old guy trumpet student. I love the trumpet sound. I'll listen and try to imitate some of your moves. Great playing, a real turn on.

Thanks.

@AreYouMyMommy Then get a trumpet :). I'm not joking. If you'd like to play then the only thing to do is go get one. Pick up a second hand student horn on ebay and a practice mute so you don't kill the family/neighbours and go for it. Trumpet isn't too hard to play (hard to play WELL but not hard to play).

Worst case is you'll get your money back on ebay because trumpets don't really devalue much on their second hand prices.

Go on, you know you want to and at least you can say you tried

@voodoochild85858 tubas work harder too sound good. trust me.

[zazzyman96]

you sound amazing, but sometimes you need to think about what you're playing because i don't think it matched the chord progression of the song. but anyways you sounded great.

I am enjoying this for the recording quality as much as for the tight interaction and good sound of the players.

[darknipple]

it's obviously an improv solo.
