Sigh. Well, I asked for comments, and I got them. And while I must agree that Eva Longoria is at least one of the sexiest TV stars of all time, I was not all that pleased with the comment spam that resulted from my entreaty for more comments. Therefore, I have made it so that you cannot post a comment without verifying that you are a human being by doing one of those "type what is written above" word verification steps. If anything, this will be annoying to my actual readers, and I will get fewer comments, but I have come to accept that. I guess Jill was right, it's impossible to know exactly who is reading this.
Today there was a brass pizza party and I had my first lesson, which involved, among other things, playing Autumn Leaves with lots and lots of slide vibrato. It was strange, and I'm not quite sure what it accomplished, but I do know that now I am supposed to practice slide vibrato regularly. Perhaps there is a good reason behind it, for as we all know, trombone teachers work in mysterious ways. Or was it that other guy, what's his name...oh yeah, Jesus. Either way. All in all it was a good day, but a long day, with a lot of playing. I think I am going to go home and rest.
We might finally get a TV soon, and then...transcending history and the world...a tale of souls and swords...eternally retold.... I'm very excited.

Autumn Leaves is for suckers. Just ask Brian. He had to comp for 45 minutes of Autumn Leaves once. In fact, I'm pretty sure that slide vibrato is for suckers too. Just ask Tommy Dorsey. That asshole never did it once. He's dead though. Good luck getting a lesson from THAT guy.
I hope this helps you with your little "problem."
