Orchestras travel cheerfully. If no one decides to ride on the roof of the train car — that’s already a good thing.
Long train journeys are always fraught with challenges, but there can be troubles during short trips as well.
Once upon a time, in the vastnessVastOne horn player from the republican orchestra felt so ill that he couldn’t make it to the restroom in time. Well, he did make it, but his tuxedo pants were completely ruined. As I mentioned earlier, the trip was short, and there was no chance for a change.
What happened next? The horn player is stuck in the bathroom and can’t get out because he has almost no pants on, while his colleagues are trying to find a solution. They reach the only stop for this express train, and one of his colleagues rushes to the platform, quickly buys something denim, and hands it to the horn player through the bathroom window. In the opposite direction, a pair of soiled pants flies out onto the platform (the horn player can’t see through the small bathroom window where the train is stopped). The train starts moving, the colleague jumps back into the carriage, and hears a terrible scream of despair coming from the restroom. It turns out that in the rush, they bought him a denim sundress instead of pants.
Curtain. Next station — Moscow-Kievskaya.
