	As low as possible!
	High

	Your cheeks puff out when you blow and when you breathe in it sounds as if you are a drowning man gasping for life
	the same listless, bored expression as always

Question 5:

During measures of rest in the music, what are you doing?

	Waiting for the conductor to cue me. I'm supposed to count?
	Either talking with the players in your section, desperately asking around to see if anyone near you knows the measure number, or as a last resort are praying that the conductor will cue you
	Counting like a fiend...perfectly
	Glaring at the guy next to you who screwed up your perfect high note by missing the partial
	Watching the conductor with my instrument primly in my lap, awaiting my next chance to shine

Question 6:

How interesting are your parts in music?

	Generally half notes and whole notes, with the occasional eighth note thrown in to make it interesting...but when I DO have the melody, then by golly, you're gonna know about it!
	it gets kinda confusing...what with all the stuff I gotta play

What is your favorite thing to do in band?

	Continuously prove the endless limits of your instrument's annoying sound
	Hit stuff and people
	Keep playing after the conductor cuts us off so that everyone can see how good I am

	See how many band members I can make cringe with the note I play

Question 9:

What is your dynamic range?

	It depends what I'm playing on
	It's moderate at best
	It's not that great
