whoa: "mean spirited"/"close-minded"...
... I find the tuba interesting, fun, and rewarding to play, but I also find most tuba solo c.d.'s not capable of keeping my attention to their ends.
Let's not blame someone for expressing their opinions, particularly when they are paid (and required by their employer) to do so. They can just as soon be dismissed for the same at the employer's whim.
In summary, let's be careful not to be mean spirited and close-minded about those who we personally (for personal reasons) view as mean spirited and close-minded. At that point, what do we have to offer them?
