How can you press Bb? There's no Bb string on... whatever instrument that is. :x

I think it's the green button on the A string (I'm assuming that's a cello).

Or some fingering on the reed instrument Jason has (I've only ever played strings, so winds are beyond me).

definitely an oboe, judging from the reed.

Clarinets are in B♭.

Assuming you actually missed the joke, it's B♭ (that's Bflat, for those whose browser and/or font doesn't render U+266D). But, now that I think about it, maybe you were just using a lowercase b because it's easier to type and works for normal people (unlike my flat which is most likely a box on your computer), in which case carry on! :)

(I, uh, read it as Bee bee at first, not Bee flat. I'm overcompensating for lack of geekery.)

No, I got that. I just wasn't aware there were any B-flat strings.

but maybe one of the fingerings was Bb?

In other words, I'm not geeky enough. Natch!

I would totally play it.

Er. If I actually had hand-eye coordination.

AHAHA. This is especially great, since my roommate and I play the oboe and cello, respectively.

Ooooh goodness.

Best FoxTrot for me, EVER.

Yes, but the trumpet part would be too easy. We only have 3 "buttons" Unless you made one that, like, also had something to squeeze to get the notes too. (to mimic the embouchure ;) ).

Regardless, that's awesome! I would so play that!!! :D

hahah but doing the scale quickly and memorizing the right keys would kind of be difficult :D

AND B-flat would definitely be amusing in trumpet's case.

further proof that Bill Amend plays videogames all day.

Hell, it's what I'd do... I just wish this comic would go into reruns sometimes. It's like he's not even trying.

That game is pretty cool, but I'm not sure what Jason is complaining about. We all know his mom thinks the rating "M" is for Mild.
