That's like a whole song of trumpet... can see why there's pressure...especially for an 8th grader...GHETTOBLASTER » 25 Dec 2023, 11:46 am » wrote: ↑ GRANADA ....... reminds me of a trumpet solo I had to stand up and play at my 8th Grade Graduation ceremony..
I practiced this solo [a "Spanish Credenza"] for weeks but could only "NAIL IT" 50% of the time.
That night's attempt didn't go well........![]()
This solo forces the trumpet player to shift the pressure inside the mouthpiece from one register to a higher register that was hard for me to find [especially under pressure].
Here's what Granada is supposed to sound like...https://youtu.be/33SlkQk_VYA?si=YL1iaV_iYtyYTIUC

Now, back to the question. Can you name ONE THING it has done good in this century?
I can name half a dozen bad things without consulting google - can you name a good one?

Right. A statement that really doesn't make a ****'s worth of difference. Who the **** cares about the threat of an invasion of a country already invaded. That's like falling out of an airplane - they say you're dead before you hit the ground.

Too often the trumpeteer / band leader is more interested in "showing off" how extreme he can make that instrument sound than he is simply making it sound pretty.
For this reason I think it's hard to beat Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass.

afore, I'm correct as both occurred within 100 yrs...aft, you've done the two-step on shifting sand...
AFAIK, every reference to centuries starts at 00 ending at 99...

That takes some of the sting out of hitting the **** ground, doncha think?
Why should we keep paying for a socialist jobs program, just because their sexcapades get you *** frank burns conjobs all in a lather? Because some future version of the country that socialist jobs program hung out to dry might need that tranny-*** military to hang THEM out to dry?
They won't stop THIS invasion, and you argue we should hang on to em to stop the NEXT?
Be honest - are you a chick?
