most likely to screw up in songs and act so high and mighty but fail without the rest of the band. Shame the brass instruments when brass carry most if not all the songs a good band plays.
This is the fifth time in three minutes you messed up bassoons, keep it up and you won't play at all.

a medieval device used to torture humans, pinata's and donkeys, causing severe bleeding of the ears.
I went to a Community Band concert the other day, the triangle, slidewhistle, vuvuzela were excellent, but some one broke out the Bassoon and my ears started bleeding.

A double reed instrument that looks like a bong crossed with a circumcised penis. You can put a balloon over the bore for the full effect.

way of life. life decisions that are made by a person who is driven by a musical instrument and the desire to make a living off of said instrument. highly impossible idea only seen worthy by truly committed. it should be supported by true friends.
"I'm going to live in Norway and study a bassoon."

probably the best instrument ever.
not a dying duck, but a cool thing.
very hard to play.
must be good at blowing and moving fingers fast.
also you loose breath fast and it's very expensive.
makes people jealous.

The larger of the two standard double reed instruments in the orchestra. It resembles a Victorian bedpost and one must have double jointed thumbs to play it! It can play in the bass range, however it's most lyrical range is in the tenor.
The bassoon starts the symphony off in the Sorcerer's Apprentice.

Consuming a large amount of alcohol, specifically beer and reaching a heroic state of inebriation whilst maintaining the appearance of functioning pleasantly in a social environment and constantly asking for cigarettes and beers.
