Twice in two i-kus you put me instantly in mind of F & S.

"My neighbour's asleep in his bed, I'll soon make him wish he were dead, I'll take up the tuba instead - wah, wah!"

Love it!

Love this one, Zeph, love it! In fact, I've been staring at it. Very relaxing.

Have to disagree, though, tuba sounds great underwater. Especially if you're trying to attract humpback whales.

D'you think the Pakalolo Institute might be persuaded to open a Department of Subaqueous Music?

Oh, but there is already.

Professors Piaget, Gluglugoal and your humble servant can be seen in this video, shot during the concert organised for the grand opening of the Pakalolo Institute's Department of Archeo-Scuba-Phonation.

Professor File was supposed to join us for a tuba solo, but unfortunately:

I'll get me wetsuit.

Oh, most impressive, Professor! The saxophone playing is particularly fine.

Excellent, then I can apply for a research grant into Tuba/Cetacean interaction... though perhaps Mme Pakamambo is already working on this line of investigation?

As for your second video, well, finny things happen at sea...

Some are tuned in A and the big brown you can find her in Moorea are Flat C.

Prof. MamboPunka,

...now I've seen it on vid, you'll never make it work in real life, hah!

Why do I have the awful feeling I'm gonna wish I'd never said that?
