Name: Edmund John Bennetts        

Position: Solo Trombone         

Joined in: Sometime in 2007

When I’m not at band:  I am on the BBC Sport website. Sad I know but very true! I am in the Sixth Form of Leicester Grammar School where I am heavily involved in music as well. I am also in Youth Brass 2000, the best youth band in the entire world. I play tennis and cricket and watch films with Kirsten Dunst in them.

Best Foresters moment: Wychavon 2007. We were all half asleep and we still won!

Favourite piece:

Most embarrassing musical moment:  After just achieving my grade 8 that day, I managed to pick the Euph part up in a concert! There was an important trom part in it. Needless to say I made it up and it went terribly wrong!

The thing that makes me laugh: My friends. Certain films that I can laugh at! Pete having to stand on a box to be seen! 

The thing that makes me cry: My friends upset. Other people crying – its so contagious!

Something people probably don’t know about me: I broke my arm by falling onto sand. Unusual I know but unfortunately it happens as I found out! I think falling from 10 ft up was the main reason though. Whatever I fell on I wasn’t going to come out of that unscathed!
