Who doesn't love slide whistles?!
Unfortunately, the slide whistle in our band "disappeared" this year. What probably actually happened was that the drummers messed with it too much, and the teacher took it away.
Very tragic.
Well, that's what happens when your drummers break stuff like bullet-proof drumheads and a woodblock. (How can a woodblock be broken? And yet our drummers did it.)
They probably had too many energy drinks.
In my band, there will be a whole section of those wonderful miniature trombones. They won't even have music, they'll just play what makes sense.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, what if everyone in the band got a slide whistle as backup, in case their instrument was getting worked on, or if they just got tired of playing it for the moment? All of a sudden, Louie Louie is 28% more awesome when that trumpet solo becomes a slide whistle solo.
The Kingsmen never saw that coming.
