When I started out, all I did was play my trombone.

Grade 9: I was too small for football, too shy for drama class, but I did have a passion for music. And so, with a mouth full of braces (and a glorious mullet), I accepted that the trombone would be a fantastic scholastic counterpart to my extracurricular loves: country music, and the guitar.

I used to play drums when I was a kid, play the trombone.

I don't play the tuba.

I'm a terrible trumpet player.

I do a mean mouth trumpet.

I played trombone for 10 minutes, and then I was in an accordion band in school for even less.

I just learned my lyrics and tried not to bump into the trumpet player. That was my philosophy.

As long as I have teeth, I'll keep playing. You can't play trumpet without teeth.
