I played the trumpet when I was younger

1. Can you still play it?

...I hear trumpet players are good with their lips. :D :*

[Ptah]

2. When I grew older, I played the tuba.

Big lip action.

3. My dear Ptah!

Oooh, you were a cute one!

I love the brass instruments...

Their clear sound makes me happy!

What a terrific pic, sweetie...

:hug:

[Ptah]

4. Were a cute one?

I still am.

:hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. Of course you are!

I did not mean to imply that you aren't cute any more!

I'm sorry...

Please forgive me...

I'm tired and not thinking very clearly ...

:loveya:

:hug:

8. Have you finished you homework, young woman?

:shrug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. Nope...

Just got off the phone with my younger daughter!

The homework will have to wait, till tomorrow, or something...

:hug:

6. I always, always wanted to! But my parents decided on the trombone for me.

Eh. At least I led the band in parades!

7. Were there seventy-six of you?

10. I played the violin when I was younger.

Been many years since I've tried to play it again.

[Ptah]

12. I tried the strings, didn't succeed.

Try again?

[DarkTirade]

13. Maybe you should try a different kind of stringed instrument, like guitar. :)

Couldn't be more different from the violin. Although what with my violin experience, I never got comfortable using a regular pick. I was so used to plucking violin strings with my fingers that I can only play barehanded or with a thumbpick. :)

[DarkTirade]

11. Ah, so you were one of those brassholes. :P

Us string players didn't usually hang out with YOUR kind after rehearsals...

[Ptah]

14. However, when it was time to make music,

we were together, no?

[DarkTirade]

15. Only when the music was written that way.

One of us had to play the off beats now and then... :)
