Dale, i'm happy you found good homes for those horns; magic should reside with those who can appreciate it. A second reason I'm glad you found homes for them is that I have been thinking about them a lot, and was tempted to fly out to the other coast to try them. That much would not have been a problem. The real problem would have been if I had felt the magic myself. Then, I would have opened my wallet, bought them and taken them home.
I can just hear what my significant other would have said: "You're bringing WHAT into our house?" "And where are we going to find room for them?" "You didn't tell me you were going to spend that much money!" And etc., etc. [She's really wonderful; it's just that she has limits, unlike me.]
So the real reason I'm happy is that I can now continue to enjoy domestic tranquility! I'm sure there are some others who feel the same way.
Best of luck with your continuing adventures with tubas,
Allen Walker
