he should just point out that the trumpet on the "no trumpet" sign is of an antique design and that his modern "bflat" is more than legal in comparison.

also, that he can wail on that bad girl!!

The sign depicts a bugle, not a trumpet. My guess is that it's in the DMZ and a bugle call signals an attack.

Also, when you get woken up at six in the morning by those things, you kind of want to stop hearing them again ever.

A trumpet has valves, a bugle does not.

rather than correct you, again

here are a couple of simple resources.
turns out, both can have both.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trumpet


19th century variants based on the standard bugle included keyed bugles and valved bugles. Keyed bugles were invented in England in the early 19th century, with a patent for one design, the Royal Kent bugle, taken out by Joseph Halliday in 1811. This bugle was highly popular and widely in use until c. 1850 – for example, in works by Richard Willis, later bandmaster of the United States Military Academy Band at West Point. This variant of the bugle fell out of use with the invention of the valved cornet - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bugle

so...ummm, guess they can both be either way. nice argument though.

Re: rather than correct you, again

So if both can be either way, what is the difference? If you put a non-valved trumpet and a non-valved bugle next to each other, how could you tell the difference? I can't find any info on Wikipedia that explains this.
