* ''Film/MexicanHayride'': While trying to blend in with some other musicians in a mariachi band, Bascom plays a trombone, only to mangle his attempts at doing so. He's not any better with a piccolo when he tries that instead.

"Attempt" being the key word here. The result does nothing to help with Digital being an AnnoyingYoungerSibling to Splaat.

He's actually not that bad at it, but he picked up the nighttime when the whole neighborhood wants to sleep and they ''don't'' appreciate being woken up.

The one time he tries to play a song it sounds more like metal scraping on metal than anything resembling music, and he bows the strings with such excessive force that he launches the bow into one of Squidward's paintings.
