Man that's incredibly nasty. Let's hope they thoroughly emptied the spit valve and bleached and rinsed and... ugh...

[–]moonbeamwhim 20 points21 points ago

Had the exact same thought. Gross.

[–]Waybye 12 points13 points ago

I feel a little sick.

[–]r0bbiedigital 3 points4 points ago

as someone who used to play the trombone, those things get fucking nasty inside. They have a spit valve for a reason, to drain the spit you blow through it when you play it. The insides are usually black and slimy and nasty as hell.

[–]obviousvirgin 41 points42 points ago

As a euphonium player, this was my immediate reaction.

[–]BinaryPalindrome 24 points25 points ago

As a fellow euphonium player reading your response, this was my immediate reaction.

[–]Lobo2ffs 9 points10 points ago

[–]BinaryPalindrome 3 points4 points ago

French horns always be frontin' like they're real brass.

[–]Akakaburito 1 point2 points ago

French horn 4 lyfe

[–]alanpugh 6 points7 points ago

Upvotes for fellow euphonium players... switched from trumpet in grade seven and never looked back.

[–]794613825 6 points7 points ago

Euphonium FTW!

[–]Idiosyncyto 4 points5 points ago

Oh man, exact same reaction. lol.

[–]ZaneMiddleten 0 points1 point ago

Eupher here. I agree; that poor euphonium.

[–]plepord 28 points29 points ago

EWWWWWWW. As a band veteran... this is absolutely disgusting!!!

[–]schmoo757 14 points15 points ago

Oh my God. No. This is disgusting. THE BACTERIAAAA

[–]WhosHandIsThis 15 points16 points ago

As a die hard band geek, I died inside a little bit when I saw this.

[–]Asiansensationz 12 points13 points ago

WTF man. As musician, this makes me sick! this belongs in /r/WTF

[–]philisntcool 6 points7 points ago

This kills the tuba.

[–]werty1432k 8 points9 points ago

Gross

[–]redditusergreen 6 points7 points ago

The plus side is whenever he (or she) plays the instrument from now on, it will always have a slurpish aftertaste.

[–]the_silent_redditor 2 points3 points ago

And probably sound shit!

[–]starsheep4 5 points6 points ago

I'm happy fellow musicians came and had the same reactions

[–]adrenalexa 4 points5 points ago

As a tuba player, I cringed. Hard. I feel sorry for that euphonium...

[–]QuietNiceGuy 4 points5 points ago

WHAT!? The next time you see your friend, slap him on behalf of every brass player in the world -.-

[–]ArborBanette 1 point2 points ago

Mmmmm.... Spitty.

[–]Vash_The_Vile 2 points3 points ago

stop being wasteful assholes <.<

[–]GokuMoto 3 points4 points ago

as a band person this post is bad and you should feel bad

[–]StudentoftheWise 3 points4 points ago

As a professional instrument cleaner/repair man, this is disgusting. You wouldn't believe the things that I have seen come out of horn bells. I hope you didn't drink it.

[–]imstartingover 0 points1 point ago

this kills the tuba

[–]LockMeIn 2 points3 points ago

The guy at the register must have turned a blind eye to the 26 x 23 cm rule.

[–]waltsnider 1 point2 points ago

There's a cup there. Look at the edges of the Slurpee. Nice try OP.

[–]LogsGetBuiltToo 0 points1 point ago

How did you know valve oil was my favorite flavor?

[–]Weynard_Muldrake 1 point2 points ago

As a slurpee enthusiast I say thats a waste.

[–]ummk789 1 point2 points ago

This kills the euphonium.

[–]justkindofadick 0 points1 point ago

Yeah drink out of your euphonium fatty.

[–]voxdoc11 1 point2 points ago

What a terrible idea

[–]Soylent_Hero 1 point2 points ago

I'm not a huge music guy, but this makes me feel the feels I felt when I saw the Pokemon Card windshield guard.

[–]Most_Likely_Dean 1 point2 points ago

why...oh why in gods name would you do that?

[–]angeleriffic 1 point2 points ago

This is disgusting to do to a instrument..

[–]CosmicBard 0 points1 point ago

Instruments are filthy.

I hope that sat in a tub of bleach for a week first.

[–]wblack21 0 points1 point ago

Nothing like a cup that's worth $4,000

[–]DJRD 0 points1 point ago

As a musician, that's fucking gross, no matter how well you cleaned it out.

[–]h8bit -1 points0 points ago

it's funny because it isn't a cup

right

[–]cmmoyer[!] -4 points-3 points ago

I'm sure that will ruin the trumpet.

[–]Parks1993 12 points13 points ago

That isn't a trumpet.

[–]BladeRunner92 7 points8 points ago

Euphonium/Baritone Horn/Tuba

[–]Breathing_Balls 2 points3 points ago

*Delete as appropriate

[–]theworkingmanskiwi 2 points3 points ago

I think it may be a tuba because the mouth piece is so large.

[–]iamarobothearmeroar 1 point2 points ago

It's a euphonium.

[–]neayaa 2 points3 points ago

This kills the tuba.

[–]Glostick 4 points5 points ago

Euphonium

[–]the_silent_redditor 2 points3 points ago

Piano.

[–]gzinthehood -3 points-2 points ago

Haha, serious or not, this was great

[–]Adonej 1 point2 points ago

Unless that was well, boiled for days before use and then brought in to be filled with slurpee, i would never drink out of that .

[–]mrmyxlplyx -3 points-2 points ago

Uh! Tu-ba... Good God... yeah!

What is it good for?

A big, ol' Slurpee cup! Say it again!
