The trumpet section of The Chinewrde Marching BandThe trumpet section of the band refused to be interviewed and there is a lot of unrest between them and the rest of the band. They are excellent trumpet players, but extremely volatile and argumentative.
The three of them were hand picked to join the band by Myrtle and so have been with the group for a great many years. They seem unhappy with all of the changes that have been made over the years – including the new name!
I have tried to acquire some information about the three of them, but none of the other members are very happy with them currently, so this has not been possible. I do hope that they sort these issues out, as they are extremely good at what they do and they do a fantastic version of their follower’s most popular tune Coronation Street.

Does this mean you do not have a trumpet section?
ReplyDeleteDotty Here...
ReplyDeleteI'm sure we have a trumpet section still.
I'm positive they were there at rehersal on Saturday, or was it Sunday?
Yes, definately they were there! Why wouldn't they be? I do vaguely remember them huddled up complaining about something, but I blew my whistle and that got them back in line!!
Godfrey - you jumped up twerp!
ReplyDeleteHow dare you say this about us!
Argumentative? we are not argumentative - we just want this pathetic band to be more proffessional!
