Captain Kangaroo Posted September 16, 2009 Report Posted September 16, 2009 I have an idea for a new InfoCision tradition:We create a Tailgate Lot #9 band. Every hour, up until 1 hour prior to game time, the "band"...for the moment I will name them "Ohio's Embarrassment"...plays Beer Barrel Polka and In Heaven There is No Beer. That's it. Then they go back to drinking beer for another 55 minutes.No rehearsals. Practice at home with your own sheet music. Fans too musically-skilled will be removed from the band. I'm in on trumpet. Who else can dust off an old instrument? Someone here had to quit playing the baritone in 10th grade? Quote

I did also play a stick and block in my elementary school music class for a while. Quote

Aaron Posted September 16, 2009 Report Posted September 16, 2009 I can add a piccolo or a set of marching bells (since nobody would be able to hear the picc anyways). I'm in lot 9 anyways, so its especially convenient. Quote
zipsfan38 Posted September 16, 2009 Report Posted September 16, 2009 I was kicked out of band in 7th grade for engaging in a friendly competition of "Who can be the last trumpet chair" with several other musically deficient friends. . . I've never regretted it for a minute.I'll bring the trumpet on Saturday! Quote

ctmjbowes@sbcglobal.net Posted September 16, 2009 Report Posted September 16, 2009 I have an old trumpet and NO skill to bring to the table in representation of Lot 4. Of course, if Lot 4 proves too skilled I suppose I could always take my complete lack thereof to Lot 9. STZ Quote

72 Roo Posted September 17, 2009 Report Posted September 17, 2009 I studied kazoo at Julliard. This was after transferring from Faber College's highly regarded kazoo program. Quote
scottditzen Posted September 17, 2009 Report Posted September 17, 2009 Attention Lot 9 All Stars: I have a banjo that I can't play, and a guitar I can sorta play.I'll bring them both!!! Quote
ctmjbowes@sbcglobal.net Posted September 17, 2009 Report Posted September 17, 2009 You know, we really could put a ZN All Kazoo Band to good use. I don't exactly know how, but there is something there. Maybe I will have figured it out after a couple of beers Saturday.STZ Quote
