The community band I play in recently changed practice venues to a different high school. As I'm getting ready for practice to start last night, I look over and see the Euphonium locker at the back of the room. Curiosity gets the best of me and I take a peek inside. Little did I expect to find a picture displaying hilartity of pee-in-the-pants proportions.I give you... the Pirate Beaver.
This raises so many questions! Why is he stabbing the fairy? When he gets hungry, does he nibble on his peg-leg? We may never know. What we do know is that the artist possessed the unbridled genius inherent only to those of the Tone clan. Hats off to you, euphonium players of Edison High School in Fountain Valley, California.
PS - Fear not, I will return your picture at our next practice.
that is MOST glorious! however that piece of music he (being the artist of pure genius) is playing looks like crap. no wonder he was inspired to draw a beaver pirate. if that was my part to play, i might want to turn myself into a bucaneering beaver and go stab some fairies me ownself!
This kid is light years ahead of his time. Perhaps not musically, but by God, he's got some talent for inside jokes. Let's hope he stays in band.
