As a trumpeter and bugler, I would have to decline an invitation to be a member of your society Bud. Please don't take it personally.
Although I have been recently thinking of becoming a piper - those are most certainly not mono-anything. I've often wondered just how far that sweet sound would carry up here. Can you think of a better welcome for the Emily's Parade than a regiment of pipes? They might even give those hogs a run for their money volume wise.

Edit to add: If I join, does this mean that my kids aren't allowed to learn the kazoo (please say yes!)?
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

Cue sad trombone music.

Then Bailey Bud probably has a problem with harmonicas. A thousand curses to harmonica haters.

I might have just had an epiphany. As a cissexual perhaps I should approve monotonal and disapprove of multi-reeds.
