Horn exuberance

So....Kendall Betts was around until his flight took off this afternoon, so he gave an impromptu masterclass at 11 and then coached our quartet---something I didn't know about until 10 minutes beforehand.

Notable Quotes from the Masterclass---

"We're a drug society. Could you imagine if we could all take BUZZ-agra?! Well, maybe that wouldn't be so good, we wouldn't stop buzzing for at least 4 hours"

"Rolled up magazines.....good for training puppies and horn players....."

Oh...so he's coaching our quartet and he said....

Kendall Betts:
oh, ya'll played in the competition? You didn't make the final round? What? Those Rednecks from Kentucky beat you into the finals?!
Well, you're better than anything we heard yesterday(This includes the NORTHWESTERN quartet). Do you know why that was?"

Victory is ours. We feel amazing. I'm feeling great. My face feels great.

But...I have orchestration...the project, and that makes me a little less great. Poo.
