Post-Repair of a 1908 Conn “Rain-Catcher” Sousaphone! My job is pretty fun sometimes. #tuba #sousaphone #instrumentrepair #lowbrass

The hyper-rare Alto Antoniophone!!! I had the pleasure of repairing this rare instrument several years back, and that it would be a great addition to Skylight :)

Two years ago when I moved into what used to be y Grandfather’s home (of 50 years!) I promised him before he passed that I would fly a flag in honor of his service.

Today I took the flagpole down.

Sorry Grandpa, I refuse to fly the flag while that Orange shithead continues to destroy this country.

Just had the joy of hearing my three-year-old call his eight-year-old sister a “crackhead”.

I think my wife and I might need to start watching what we say 😅

I know a lot of my followers are young and american, but I'm curious to hear from anyone in other countries with the experience of going from a semi-functioning democracy to a dictatorship.
How did you handle that? What did you hold on to? What advice do you have for us?

I haven’t had the chance to make a thorough demo video, so here’s me honking a few notes just minutes after the new pads went in.
