Yep!
Good ol' Charlie can blast with the loudest most crass of them. Gabe, ya
like all of his missed and chipped notes.
Naw!
Charlie has no soul. Just loud blastissimo sound and technique. 
Where is the music from this guy?
None!
Bet on it!
 
Yup!

<< Thirdly, until you can play as well as Charlie, you might think about
what can be learned 
from what he says rather than dismissing it as demagoguery. Accurate or
no, the way he 
thinks about playing the trombone has gotten him to an absolutely
astounding level of 
ability, and dismissing what he says is your own loss. I would argue
that NOBODY in the 
world matches his physical skills on the instrument. Not Christian
Lindberg, not Joe 
Alesssi, not Bill Watrous or Wycliffe Gordon, fantastic as they all are.
Whether or not 
you like what he does musically or how he goes about teaching and
playing is an entirely 
separate question in my mind. >>
