Theres so many comments saying that they're trombonists and they play during suicides or complaining that they didn't play, and I'd just like to say, let people enjoy something and stop complaining.
I've seen a lot of comments complaining about how they're not playing, so I, a trombone player learning suicides, am just going to say this You don't play during suicides, in fact, you're supposed to keep the mouthpiece a small distance from your mouth, so that you don't literally knock your teeth out. I've also been told to keep the slide lock ON while doing these so that it doesn't go flying. I also think it would be much easier to hit the people next to you with your slide out. Ergo, playing during a suicide line is not typically done, for both the safety of the trombonists and their instruments.
They didn't even play them. There was absolutely nothing impressive about that at all. I'd be embarrassed to dance with a musical instrument and not play it at all. Wasn't even a good dance if that's what you want to call it. Smh. Bet they got a trophy of some sort tho.
This entire comment section should be ashamed of themselves. They’re just kids. And even if they were adults, you have no right to ever, *ever* say that what something someone did is not enough. This trombone section practiced hard for this performance, and you just want to come over here and make fun of their accomplishment. Shame. On. You.
Y’all expecting them to play, it’s in the title that they were doing suicides. It’s a marching band thing- traditionally you don’t play. If anything, you should be getting upset with sloppy movement lol oof
*when you don’t play trombone and you know that when you do suicides you ARE NOT supposed to play* Seriously guys, suicides are really hard to learn, and take immense practice and memorization. Have some respect, it was cool.
Y’all chill. They shouldn’t play something. Because that isn’t what trombone suicides are! They didn’t do it as fast as normal but you should not play during this routine
Evryone that complains that they didn’t play, has got this all wrong! The suicide is a hard thing to master, instruments are not just made for playing you know
