Children in the band

boy_trumpetOH MY GOD BECKY!

The kids next door came home from school and 2 of them have brass instruments!  I'm not exactly sure what kind but I can hear them pretty clear.  It's obvious to me that they have never played them before because the tune they are playing isn't even close to resembling a song.

I empathize with them though because when I was 11 or 12 I played the tuba every day when I got home from school.  My parents would only tolerate me playing it for 1 hour a day and sometimes they made me cut it short after only 10 seconds lol.  Sometimes I had to just practice my fingering.  Yes, I said fingering.

Now I know what I put my parents through all those years ago lol.
