also heard a story about to americans arriving in Bergen at the 17th of May, totally unaware (or un-educated) of the date. they asked some random person what was going on (since there were party and flags and bunads and what not everywhere). The norwegian guy answered "it's sunday". true story.

I play in a marching band and 17th of May is without doubt the longest day of the year. The marchingbands starts around 6 o'clock somewhere and aren't finished until late... This year I "only" marched 20km carrying and playing my 12kg instrument (EUPHONIUM mastr race). I fell asleep when I came in the door and overslept the cakes :'( It is fun tho

That's right, you're a euphonium player. The mythical euphonium player who actually got a date. You're an icon.

We clocked in about 21000 steps on the 17th.

Is this a stereotype? I recently started watching an anime about a brass band where the main character plays the euphonium, but I don't know the first thing about brass instruments.

To start with, almost nobody even knows what a euphonium is.  And once they see it, they're not exactly impressed.  A chick magnet, it ain't.  Not like playing trumpet, or saxophone, or even trombone.  A french horn at least has style, though it's sort of anti-macho.  A euphonium's got nothing.

A euphonium player is the type of guy who, in a moment of silence you look around at him and go "oh...you're still here?"

Not beating on Huff-Juff, more commiserating as a fellow sufferer of the instrument.

That makes sense.  It wasn't something I'd ever heard of before watching this show. Razz

This one is actually pretty good so far. Not as good as the boxing anime that got me interested in that sport for the first time, though.

The jazz-sexophones stripped (all men, 6) during our last performance at the school. All french hornists (3) were girls Smile trombones are maybe not the sexiest people, but they're the most fun. Same goes for tubaists.

Trombone/euphonists players make the best kissers. It's all in the mouthpiece - the perfect size. Trumpet and french hornist purse their lips; tubaist are sloppy.
