Hey guys. It’s been a while. what’s happening? Seems a bit dead around here? 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️ does Burnsey still live here?

Guys, this forum used to be buzzing. Yea some of the threads were argumentative, some were downright rude, some were interesting, some were tedious, but they all created traffic. This thread having been untouched for weeks is still on page two of the rehearsal room. 5 or 6 years ago this ould...

I think that may well be correct. I'm not sure there is any moderation there other than Facebooks legal department. This thread, and ones like it, are perhaps the problem. You guys are just so unhappy!

Do you have something to hide Doc? (Joke!) It's a very popular platform, but your right, if you want 1970's annonimity it's impossible there.

Has anyone checked out the Facebook group "the gob iron"? I think most of the guys that used to hang around here are over there these days. It's pretty cool, check it out. 登录 Facebook | Facebook

Don't be mean Matthew. He's new. And it's a good price. X

Norman Law.

The larger bore instruments have of course made the players jobs easier, but actually it has also changed the sound of a band massively. For the worse i feel.

Well for Cory and congratualtions on a great appointment.The future is bright!

A trombone silent brass is the best one for TH. it actually has exactly the same bell flare as a sovereign trombone as was. ;-)

King 4B. fabulous instrument.

Is it possible that the brass band forums like this one are taken a little seriously by the movements elite? Im a member of many football forums and Sir Alex never rings the owner to complain about whats being said. Shouldn't the "Kings of Brass" and "Dynasties" of our hobby be a little less...

Guys I don't think any of you understand. Webster, morrison and brighouse are all of an equally excellent standard. This is a question of sportsmanship and banding ethics. Playing renowned soloists of a standard high above your band as ringers for a contest is tantamount to an olympic athlete...

Roger Webster and Alan Morrison are signed to brighouse. Numpty.

It is shocking. First off if there were 4 fodens deps and a brighouse dep then that's 5 deps. Although I did only think there were 3 from fodens and 1 from brighouse. Secondly a borrowing contest is set up to make it an even playing field, to help bands who need to fill seats for whatever...

Yes I noticed those players too and they also used brighouse's sop! Anyone spot any other ringers?! I think its shocking behaviour!

How many sops are you allowed to play at pontins? I believe marsden played more than one sop...

This is the word on the street at the Albert hall tonight and, Pontins prestatyn! 1. Bob Childs is moving from the valley of Rhondda to Queensbury with David and a couple of other pawns in tow. 2. Tredegars baritone section are the finest in the country. 3. Some euphonium endorcee...

Apparently (using no names) Its accepted practise to disguise your instrument as another. Even if your a paid endorcee! Repair shops in Wales will do the work for you and. . . You can have your cake and eat it! I've read a coupe of posts here and I want to discuss it, however...

Thats just being pedantic - give me a couple of hours in the garage tomorrow and I'll see what I can do. They laughed at Adolphe Sax at first.
