Cool, in a weird sort of way. Clearly we need a version of this for whistles, flutes, pipes, etc.

I sent a link to this thread to Kota Hamanaga, manager of Best Brass and son of the inventor of all these funny things. We have some of their brass mutes at our store and they are really great.
He found it very amusing and said, they will get right at developing those whistle mutes... Good guy.

Despite being celebrities, Ro3b and I have decided that the use of our images in this manner is explicitly prohibited. We know we're hot, but try to resist.

(Seriously, I'm a little creeped out!)

Damn right. Caroluna, expect a call from our lawyers.

Ouch! Sorry about that. :oops:

I modified the picture-- I hope it's OK that way.
And I made the other picture less incriminating as well. :wink:

Damn. That black stripe over the eyes makes me look dangerously yellow-journalism sexy, doesn't it. But the dorkacious (Dorkulent? Dorktastic?) e-pipes ruin that, so I'm back to square one.
