When the chops don't feel right and we don't feel like practicing I also think back to what "Jake" use to say "play a G in the staff until the lips feels like normal" I still approach the trumpet at times with that in mind if things are not working right. I think it lets me just concentrate on the air and sound and not think about what is not working. Craig I enjoy the Livemusic News, thanks.
