Absolute Blue Instrumentizes

We are all familiar with The Worst Band You’ll Ever Love and their many local performances through the years, but did you know they are all very accompliced musicians? It may be strange to think of them on these terms but in many cases they started out on different instruments and in other cases, where local laws allow, they still maintain these skills across a wide range of the musical spectrum. For example, after having an epiphany on tympani, Kevin auditioned so many times for local bands he became known as the Repercussionist (Back in the 90’s he was known as Rico Clave). And at one point, Bill was very proficient on the Freedom Horn. Tom created the Absolute Bluekelele and Don was so good at woodwinds he was called Oboe Wan Kenobi. I could say that Skip played the harp, but that would make a lyre out of me. But that’s just the start:

-The first time Bill played his piccolo in public, the audience threw tomatoes, proving when the fluting starts the fruiting starts.

-Tom started playing multiple double reed instruments but was told to stop Bassoon as possible.

-Don tried percussion and strings until he was arrested carrying a concealed 9mm glockenspiel under suspicion of committing multiple acts of violins.

-Kevin was in a string quartet until being released for copyright infringement related to his Cello Kitty product line. He claims that he left of his own accordion.

-Skip has played so many bluegrass instruments that he has become known as The Mandolinean.
