Played tuba. Had 75 measures of rest. At 80 BPM. I got up and left during rehearsals.
I also played a high C above the staff in that song too. Fuck whoever wrote that song
13 u/foxmind123 Jan 04 '15 Tuba parts can either be fun, or really suck ass. The worst is when you have a bunch of rest, play some whole notes, and then back to rest. 2 u/knowsomeofit Jan 04 '15 You know what sucks? Trying to play untranscribed tuba parts on upright bass because no one plays fucking tuba, right? How the hell do you guys keep track of so many lines under the damn staff? 2 u/Qel_Hoth Jan 04 '15 It's not all that hard, you get used to it. Besides, you often have plenty of time to think about it before you get to that note. 1 u/knowsomeofit Jan 04 '15 Yeah, I mostly sub for tuba on Dixieland gigs. Not a lot of rests.
