argh...i am mortified. i have hurt my baby, my precious horn...i dropped my inner slide today while cleaning it (actually it was more of a bump and a fall) and now something is wrong!! i can't find any dents but it's slow up at the top, i think i may have sprung it a little and now it doesn't fit in the outer slide as well. boo hoo! this is a travesty...this is terrible!! it still works...but a trombonist is picky about her slide...it must go to corky...but when?!? i have the musical all weekend and then on tuesday i leave for home. i wonder if corky could fix it before i go home (i need to work on audition stuff!)...i'll call him. hmph. *sob!* i'm so sorry baby!
