Yeah, I do that too. This is an actual conversation I had with a bank teller two days ago...

"What do you do?"

"I'm a musician."

"Realy? What do you play?"

"I play the euphonium"

"The what? What is THAT?"

"(sigh) I play the tuba."

"OH!. What symphony do you play with? I have a friend who is touring with Phantom of the Opera."

"Uh... I play in the Army band down the road."

"Oh. Have a nice day."
