Pilafian! - Let the buzzing games begin!
 


U. of S. tubaist serves as Pilafian's guinea pig while the others watch with interest.
 


Maybe the Rockettes should consider a tuba line like Sam has!
(This picture is intentionally dark to protect the guilty)
 


Tuba players from Blue Ridge High School Band (Jeff Burkett, Director) pose with Sammy. 
(Looks a little like a WWF press shot, no?)
 


Bill DelPrete, local tuba player and teacher, talks over some mouthpiece issues with Sam at the break.
 


Nate and Mike say "Thanks Sam!"
 


Exhausted at the end of the weekend, Cheryl & Sam try to ignore the 9 year old trumpet playing Energizer Bunny in the background (who seems ready for another masterclass)!
