Hello everyone! A friend and I are making the trip out to New York City for the 50th anniversary of TubaChristmas! Shipping tubas nowadays is expensive, so I thought I'd let everyone know that, depending on the item, I could possibly bring something with me to or from New York City. I'm always happy to help a member of the low brass community!

Is anyone else from here going to NYC for this? If so, I'd love to say hi!

I'll be there. Look for the 6 foot 8 guy with a tiny British baritone with a removable bell.

I promise I'll be the only person there that matches that description

I lived in the city for 8 years... Don't be so certain about such things...

1 in 1000 people are my height

My baritone is a custom build

Ill take that bet

Well Mark, if you're one in a million...

...then they should have about 8 or 9 of you there.

Maybe in New York, but at tuba Christmas? I'll take that bet

Anyone need anything hauled? Happy to help the community!

Well, since I'm 6'11", and I'm a Mark too. Oh never mind....

If I were going I'd make a similar claim as to a 5'2" skinny blonde with a great big tuba -- but likely there are far more of those than 6 foot 8 guys.

Oh, and tofu, when you said you lived "in the city" you forgot to capitalize properly. You know, The City. I lived upstate for 14 years.

Good luck with Craiglist. Last I checked, it was overrun with ads for dirt bikes that included thousands of buzzwords in the ad so that they appear in any search result.

If you add "-motorcycle" to the search it removes that garbage!

oops my bad, it was bort who said "the city."

We're getting close to leaving! We depart on the 8th and will be driving back on the 11th if anyone needs stuff moved over a few states.
