After having the BE book for over a year I think I'm ready to take the plunge and start working towards a more closed embouchure.

As a Jr in high school I was able to play double C's no problem. One summer in drum corps spread my chops and I've been struggling to get back to the point I was in high school. I'm hoping BE will help.

One question I have would be is BE better used with dry lips? In doing the lip squeaks I have found them to come out easier with dry lips rather than wet. Anyone else experience this?

I use everything dry EXCEPT the Roll Outs. IMO they are best done wet. In my case, the wetter the better.
