I. Am. Pissed.
I have a jazz band concert tonight. I'm first chair alto sax. I have a twenty measure solo.

I also have a fat lip.

Ouch.

(Okay, just had to get that out of my system. I have no idea why I just laughed like that....I must have a sadistic streak. :D :P :D)

Sorry to hear about that, though, MMR. :D A twenty measure solo with a fat lip--break out the blues, man; you can wail away while ACTUALLY being in pain.... :D :P :D

:D :D

6. I put some ice on it, so now it's going down... but it still hurts...
Oh well, I guess I do have a reason to wail, now!

8. I dunno if this is truth or folklore, but
legend has it that the Glenn Miller "sound" was born when his first trumpet split his lip during rehearsal the night before the band's first gig. Miller had to rearrange "I Know Why" and he did it with the clarinet-trombone lead that became the band's signature sound.

So you may be soon to be a part of music history.
