- Most special of all, it is the only band instrument that can be used to kindle a fire. (The bagpipes are equally flammable but are excluded from most school bands, though they are present at funerals and play a key role in cremations.) Lack of a good bassoon, which could be used to signal passing ships or airplanes, is why the cast of Lost has still not been picked up. If thrown correctly, the bassoon can drop large game animals. Such an act is called a "perfect pitch."

It is possible to duel using bassoons. Bassoon dueling is a fine art practiced by excellent men, such as Stephen Colbert and Tad, the building manager.

- The bassoon is a notoriously difficult instrument to play—perhaps only the oboeis more difficult.It is widely accepted that Dr. Stephen Colbert is the greatest living bassoon player in the world. It is possible to duel using bassoons. Bassoon dueling is a fine art practiced by excellent men, such as Stephen Colbert and Tad, the building manager. Dr. Colbert's death metal album, Symphonies of the Infernal, includes several bassoon-driven thrash metal songs, including hit singles "Screaming Woodwinds" and "Number of the Bassoon". The Decemberists don't even have a bassoonist in their band; how can anyone take them seriously?

Such an act is called a "perfect pitch." Despite the bassoon's odd sound and look, it is a little better than the oboe and a lot better than the viola, and burns much longer than both.
