Got my first Bali yesterday, a jag and have been practicing nonstop. Eventually it started to squeek so I wanted to oil it. I used Olive Oil (thats all I got at my house). Just wondering if anyone has any input or preferences on the best kind of oil to use to prolong the life on the bali. Thanks all in advance.

Another case of "please take a few moments and review the last few days of activity." It doesn't bother me if you repeat a topic covered six months ago, even a couple of weeks ago. But, if you're new or if you just haven't been reading lately, please review the last week or so of material. At least scan the titles. It's not that much. It's not hard to do. No search engine required; just scroll down your screen a little. Thank you.
 
Jeez, Chuck, are the Marching Marimbas out of tune, or what? :P Listen, being a high school band nerd, I have a suggestion for you...

Take a deep breath, tilt your head back a piece, and yell in your loudest voice...

"I AM THE DIRECTOR! I WON'T TAKE THIS CRAP ANYMORE! BITE ME, YOU FREAKS!!"

Well, it worked for my band director...:D

He, obviously, did not have 186 marching marimbas to deal with. The new Gershwin showtunes medley is not going well and our summer tour starts in just three weeks.

No, he had a buncha smartasses like me to deal with :D:D

Besides, 8 tubas is a helluva force to be reckoned with...:D:D

Instead of marimbas, try trading them in for 186 tubas. Try tuning that mess... :p

BTW, since our practice field was right by a major road, there was more than one occasion where the director turned to the road and demanded that some wiseass "BITE ME YA FREAK!!", or the ever-hilarious "EAT ME!!" :D:D
 
I had 2 band directors 1 was a woman who hated percussion(ists)
and 1 guy who loved percussion...the louder and more complex...the better.

the woman told me I "sucked really bad and should quit band" when I payed under the male director, he encouraged me to try a NYSMA solo (New York State Musicians Association) I scored higher than anyone else in my band

Although Mrs Daley had a thing for yelling "Eat Me" too (Must be a Music Director thing) However, she was a rather massive and stalwart woman of Eastern Russian decent. I once replied to her "I dont have all day to waste." I was suspended for lewd comments.

Ahh High School

PS Chuck do you want #187?
