A black woman plays the flute

[malada]

So... this amazing musician named Lizzo went to the Library of Congress to check out their flute collection.

Wait... they have a flute collection? How many? 1,700? Hot damn!

Then she got to rock on a crystal flute owned my James Madison? Awesome!

I now know the Library of Congress has a *huge* collection of flutes, and one of them is a *crystal* flute, and there's this black woman named Lizzo who can blow like nobody's business.

So... what's the problem?

I'll tell you what my problem is... I didn't know _any_ of that before!

Now I want to know what else do they have in there? Do they have cellos? Calling Yo-yo Ma! Oboes? (Naw, nobody cares about oboes). Guitars? Saxophones? Can we get a _band_ together?

Hot damn.

PS - my profile pic is me holding a 1972 Hagstom bass guitar. I rescued it from a garage sale - rebuilt the electronics, repaired a large hole in the front and took it to a repair shop to have the neck shimmed. It doesn't play very well but I like it.

Wait for it. Someone is going to be the Yo-Yo Ma of oboes.
