The case I described had nothing to do with music, but happen during a skiing week in the alps.
Another recommendation. Use one of these "fart" cushions secretly, when the nasty young player has a low (solo) entrance. Once the "fart" happen - sounds well like 4rth horn sometimes - give him a ugly face or questioning face. The conductor will interrupt and ask the nasty boy, - but only if the conductor is not stone deaf, - what happen with the low note, perhaps others in the orchestra will laugh hysterically, - and things will be cleared forever. Well, his ego will be damaged, but who cares. Or, fumble a bit on his corks, to get them a bit off place, just a bit. It works wonders. The horn will become horribly tight. Or switch upper & lower 2nd slide. Hopefully, he will not notice it but feel, if the notes come out distuned. ============================================================ ================================================== -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 07, 2005 6:11 AM To: horn@music.memphis.edu Subject: Re: [Hornlist] disrespect in the section In a message dated 10/6/2005 9:30:13 P.M.

Catch the boy, pants down & polish his ass with black shoe polish, really polishing by a brush. But do not forget, putting a (potatoe) sack over his head first. He will have a hell, removing the black "ass". But you & your friends should take care, not to hurt him. This is the rough antic educational method, a very successful method for special individuals. Ha, I guess pinning his hand to the bar with an ice pick and then strangling him with piano wire is too severe. _______________________________________________ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/hans%40pizka. de _______________________________________________ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
