Hoped this helps.

AMEN BRUDDA
i am a professional trumpet player, and i do agree with him
if you are playing the trombone in a band with more than 5 or 6 members, you will ALWAYS take the back seat to the trumpets (except for solos)
it is also easier to play notes on a trumpet faster than a trombone (unless you want your arms to fall off)
the trombone is
also featured in hundreds of ska songs (like the trumpet), so if you want that genre, give her a shot (simply my advice)
once you play any brass instrument, its not
that hard to switch, but it depends on how musical you are.
