"Tub" not "Tuba"

Annette Keeter offered this correction to her post about band a while ago. She submitted it correctly, but it was assumed it was a typo.

"Dean Miller was our coach and math teacher and he played the TUB (not the tuba). It was a #2 wash tub with a hole in the middle. He tied a string in that hole and controlled the sound by having the other end of the string tied to a broom handle. He was the "flat" in the band of three sharps and a flat."
