trumpets

My father is a "retired" trumpet player. He played the trumpet in high school and college, and for a few different church bands when he was younger, but he hasn't picked up his trumpet in years now. In fact, I'm pretty sure he actually gave his trumpet away a few years back - since he wasn't using it, there was no reason to keep it. Not to mention, *if* he wanted to start playing the trumpet again, he'd have to buy things like trumpet slide grease at Musicians Friend, AND he would have to find someplace where he would be allowed to practice, since we wouldn't let him practice in the house!
