I once played in a brass group with a brass band Eb tuba player who could
only read treble clef  Faced with bass clef (in concert pitch) parts, we
told him to knock off 3 flats and play it as treble - no way, he couldn't
do it.  I got a piece of paper and drew treble clefs on it and stuck it
over the bass clefs and key signature - guess what?  - he could read it now
with no problem.

Weird eh?
