Now that I just pissed off a whole bunch of guys who just got their gun out of the nightstand, let me say this:
Yesterday I showed great respect for the smaller camp, which is large , by making a HUGE compromise and sacrifice. On my C tpt I went from my HUGE mouthpiece, a 1C rim with a 24 throat to a PUNY ASS mouthpiece,

It worked well. I like to use this piece when I'm not in the orchestra.
Further, I made a STUNNING offer of respect for my smaller piece homies on the Bb
by whipping out my........................ Bach 7EW(the EW standing for EllisWorkman:) I actually used to use this piece for legit.
..........................................................................................
I did very well. So well that I thought I'd see how it would work going higher.
It was working, I started to get excited. The legit guy gets up around high F#.
So, the teacher, turned screacher, gets greedy, coveting a high H and pushs
and reaches High I which you can't hear (because it isn't there).
But in doing that well, the chops began to swell. This morning the tissue is still
swollen and a little stiff. My 1C feels puny, so I have to whip out the trombone mouthpiece and
do drugs. I'm stacking ibuprofen and coffee and ingesting elephant farts(which
sometimes are accompanied by fartatious debris). I'm hoping for at least a partial
recovery. Sometimes it takes me a day or two like this for the chops to get back
to normal. I decided to cut some salt out of my diet too, so today, I skip mybowl
of salt with a littl mik for breakfast(which my doctor had recommnded for low
pressure). Instead I had a bowl of cheerios with a littl salt on top.
I also am scheduling an appointment with the Chop Doctors in th chatroom
tonight and pray for some relief.
