I can't believe you found a stock photo of an empty liquor bottle, spilled pills, and a (seemingly) dead mans hand, all laying on a leadsheet of One Finger Snap. hahahaha! _________________ www.craigtweddell.com

Very well done. If you had found a way to sneak in a picture of a few thousand mouthpieces...

Speaking of jazz humor. I think one of the funnest comedy bits is the link below featuring Pete Barbuti and the Woody Herman Band.

Larry
p.s. - Not sure what equipment Pete is using there. Might be a Krapest trumpet. Lots of the great pros used to play those.

Farnell: Excellent Facebook ad - very good!!
Larry: Pete B is hilarious; lots of good clips of him on YouTube - and they're all well worth the time.
