[Top Text: Trumpet switched to baritone Bottom Text: Still can’t read bass clef]

Welcome to my life. I switched to Baritone my second semester of freshman year of high school because all the top band baritones (1) failed. The rest absolutely SUCKED. To this day, I still cannot read bass clef. Let me go to a corner and cry now.
