Subj: [kl] Out of tune in South Dakota
Date: Thu, 25 May 2000 00:45:43 -0400

Yeah, we never play anything out of tune here, because we all have our
instruments tuned at the factory. This also saves rehearsal time, since
we don't need to waste time getting an A! Right, Dee? See, now that
you've moved away, you won't have any more perfect bands to play in.
(For those of you who are literalists, I'm joking.) Actually, I wish
we'd have at least a state-wide pitch standard. The Symphony and
Municipal Band play at 440, while the Youth Symphony tunes to 445!
(Unfortunately, I'm not joking about this.)
