Top 10 signs:

1.You know the difference between Bonade and Benade.

2.Your computer home page is "EBay - Alto Clarinet - Mouthpieces"

3. You've named your first two children "Mark" and "Charette"

4. You replace all your ligatures every 3 years due to "ligature blow
out".

5.You have Phil Rovner's phone number on your speed dial.

6. You know the names of all the woodwind players in the Cleveland
Orchestra
under Szell but you can't remember your kids' birthdays.

7. When you hear that the Army is using M16's in Iraq, you immediately
think
of Vandoren mouthpieces.

8.You only need ligatures beginning with letters "Q" or "Z" to complete
your
entire collection of the full alphabetical list of all ligatures.

9.You absolutely have to know what kind of thumbrest cushion Drucker,
Neidich, Morales, and Stoltzman use.

10. You answer most music questions with "listen to the Marcellus
recording"
