Riker plays the bone
The real difference is that Jonathan Frakes actually knows how to play trombone, and pretty well. Patrick Stewart and Brent Spiner don’t play their instruments at all.
Spiner, however, is an accomplished singer.
Holy shit
Edit: The end product of suffering...
Isn’t Rom arguably the most important?
Never finished DN9 but have heard this joke before - what's the meaning?
[don't worry I'll finish it someday!]
There’s an episode where Rom forms a union of workers at Quarks, O’Brien describes his great great great relative as “he was more than a hero, he was a union man!”
Meanwhile Rom is facing some serious consequences for trying to start a union in a ferenghi company.
It’s a good episode!
But who was his mentor?
But Rom is a union man
I want the prequel where Riker was in a ska band
Riker with dreds
Riker, that is.
He's more of a Swing Revival guy, I think.
Nah, he doesn’t have the right tone for jazz trombone. At least that’s what my band teacher said.
I believe it. Trek is an amazing franchise, but it doesn't really do jazz.
IT GETS LONGER TO HANDLE HARDER BLOWS.
Trombone lips spread hips
A day late, but relevant.

Revenge of the fifth works still tho
But is it rusty?
Ackchyually 🤓☝️trombones are made of brass and therefore don't rust, they corrode. The biggest threats to a trombone slide are dents and verdigris
The biggest threats to a trombone slide are dents and verdigris
Left out band members with devious minds.
No one specified where the dents and verdigis come from
Trombone players are a bit of a mess. They can't even be trusted with valves.
...if you know what I mean.
