Trumpet Player Has Guts. Good!

This is unprecedented.  I've seen well over 100 symphony concerts live (and another few dozen on the teevee) and I've NEVER seen this happen.

A classical musician walked off the stage after a pop singer mocked a Christmas carol and criticized Republicans in the U.S. Congress. Manny Laureano, Principal Trumpet for the Minnesota Orchestra, made the silent protest during a Rufus Wainwright concert in Minneapolis’ Orchestra Hall on the evening of December 2. Wainwright,...

Actually, it's "DOOFUS Wainwright," based on the rest of the news story.  Doofus is a professional pain in the ass (in more ways than one) and virulent anti-Christian.

The trumpet player may catch Hell from the symphony, of course.  And he should toss it right back at them.

  1. Tis the season for the mighty to fall.... Like a spontaneous purge once folks wake up and recover a sense of self respect.....

    It is a little late for a similar protest to occur in NYC due to the antics of this creep.
