Looks like when I visited Frank Kaspar in Cicero, only all he had were his own stuff. And all I bought was a barrel (grrrrrrrrrr)

From the looks of the pictures in middle, lower right, it appears that this "army" got hit by a bomb.

GBK - I think that your designation of a group of mouthpieces is possibly incorrect and we should ask the BB for the correct term - others of course include a: gaggle of geese, pride of lions, exaltation of angels, school of fish, army of ants, rafter of turkeys, but there should be a better term for a collection of mouthpieces??? My guess - a too'tin of mouthpieces.

A melange of mouthpieces

Doc...I was actually thinking the same thing. There should be a collective term for a large number of used mouthpieces.

I was going to title this thread "A Rabble of Mouthpieces" or "A Siege of Mouthpieces", but now I am leaning toward:

"A Rejection of Mouthpieces"...GBK

(anyone else have a "collective" term that may fit?)

lets borrow a surfing term (borrowed from somewhere else...)
a "quiver" of mouthpieces
i think it sounds great, next time someone wants to consult me about my mouthpiece stuff i'll say "ok, i meet you at the studio, i'll make sure i have my QUIVER with me"
certainly easier to carry around than a quiver of surfboards

Of course, it has to be: a squeek of mouthpieces.

If reality is allowed to prevail, it could only be: a "confusion" of mouthpieces. Think not? Well, do try them all and tell me which one you like best.

Well, with the pile that big, I would think a Hemi-demi-semi-quiver of mouthpieces, give or take.

(if only i can get the E flat clarinet part of Daphnis and Chloe out of my head dam it, i went to sleep last night dreaming "da daaahhhhh da da da da da")
