trombone

An instrument whose players can, unlike tuba players, actually keep time. Originally designed as an improvement on the trumpet, the trombone turned out to be an improvement on all other instruments as well. A single trombonist can, and will outplay many small string ensembles. For every time a trombonist hits fortissimo, a man gets a hard on somewhere, and three women lose their virginity...twice. Also considered by many to have magical properties.
No, there is nothing wrong with your recording equipment's balance, we have a trombone in the ensemble.

Bass Trombone

A development of the trombone which its self was a present from god to the rest of the world. This glorious instrument is often mocked for having all the suttelty of a sledge hammer and the dynamic range of a chainsaw. This is grossly unfair as when played properly this instrument is comparable to none other. In a band situation the Bass Trombonist is often referred to as the 3rd Trombonist. If this does not cease to continue then the Bass Trombone faternity will rise against the world.
1. All BASS TROMBONISTS are gifts from God himself.
2. I wish I was intelligent enough to play the BASS TROMBONE
