Okay. Hold up.
So, today is apparently Saxaphone Day, most likely because the inventor of the saxophone Adolphe Sax was born today in 1814.
HOWEVER...
John Philip Sousa was also born today in 1854. Now, Sousa was known for a lot of other things that gain notoriety, but why the heck is it not also Sousaphone Day? Huh? Huh?
Consider this one pouty sousaphone player.
...You win this time, Brian. *narrow eyes.*
(( also, it's a shame I don't have my Pratchett Tuba quote icon on this account and am at work and can't upload it ))
