Especially on Memorial Day, in front of 300k in attendance and 8 million watching at home. The brass balls on those dudes to get up there and play it with such great tone quality… amazes me every year. Not much room for error…
Great perspective from @wbuxtonofficial on @AskOffTrack about TAPS. As a trumpet player growing up, I too get chills when TAPS is played at the INDY 500. Trumpet players always want to sound good, but one song you do not want to screw up is TAPS…
