Puzzle Box 4

[flyerfan]

This is what I got:

stars 5 clarinet

circles 8 Mellophone

boxes 2 saxiphone

saturns 4 big horn

hearts 4 french horn

smiles 4 tuba

bugs 2 string bass

butterfiles 5 trumpet

If you take the letter from each instrament cooresponding to the number, you get the letters: ioahnaap, which can be rearranged to spell: Aha Piano. Makes sense in the context of the puzzle but haven't solved anythign yet. Thoughts?

Not that it may matter, but I counted 5 Saturns.

[kpxo]

all of the numbers of stars, circles, boxes etc seem accurate to my recollection. not that the video was easy to decipher.

[ultradark]

There was 5 saturns and I don't believe there was any bugs, but certainly not 8 circles and 2 bugs (assuming both were the last thing(s) before the squares).

Maybe this page has something to do with it?

Someone mentioned something about different sounds..

Bulletin Board

Chase: two soloists, such as the trumpet and sax, taking alternating 4-bar phrases (or 8, or 2). See Trading 4s.

crow "bar"?

four ="fore" called out in golf like swinging the golf club

Trading 4s (or 8s, 2s): A form of discontinuous drum solo in which 4 measure sections are alternately played solo by the drummer, and by the band with another soloist (who goes first). The latter can be one particular soloist throughout, or it can cycle through the different instruments. Also, two different instrumental soloists can trade 4s with each other, such as the trumpet and the sax. This is called a chase. Trading 4s usually goes on for one or two choruses.

i maybe stretching but might help someone who was thinking along same lines.

I counted 5 saturns too - 2 of them were in the same location at different times

There WERE bugs ... they were the things that looked like Baseballs.

Hey, I put together this Excel graph for A Different Point of View. It is 3-D and you can move it at your hearts content. From some angles it looks like their may be words, but I am too blind to make anything out.

Anyone notice the glenn miller poster is missing an N in Glenn?

I don't see them. I see 4 cubes, the first 2 being at an odd angle that might look like a baseball?

I agree, those are cubes. The bugs might be some of the circles. The two last sets of circles look a bit buggy to me :p

6:50 - 6:52 in the video. Blink and you miss them.

Edit: You're right. Those could definitely be cubes from different angles. No F-note, then?

Those are what look like cubes from a 3D perspective to me

Welcome to 5 hours ago. If you happen to find some meaning behind it, please, let us know. OTOH, I've tried the title of just about every Glenn Miller Band song/album, some of the names of the rest of the band, various locations where they played (focusing on military service, since "Shaping Up" is usually followed with "Shipping out") and I've come up completely empty handed, so I'm headed to bed.

They changed the links to the event videos, no more hi-def/standard, just only one link

to the video we already have... too bad it's going to be hard to find really what the clues

show in the video ... I'll look back again at the one posted at hive ...

[SuperRob]

So this is what I've got ...

Star ? C

Smiley ? D

Planet ? E

Heart ? G

Butterfly ? E

Circle ? D

Cube ? E

But what does the lack of the F have to do with it? And what does the clue "Shaping Up" mean? Could the fact that the "Bug" wasn't the shape be the clue?

maybe during a famous performance someone missed an F and was fired or glenn got ****ed off, who knows

Also, the Bug is the only note that is not a solid note... the bug is a sharp (I think F sharp).

Glenn Miller was flying to France when his plane was lost. (F)rance.

I tried plotting the notes on a graph to see if it created a shape, but no luck so far. here is what I got
