Audio slideshow: Trumpeter-guitarist draws crowd with Bob Dylan covers in downtown Ann Arbor
Brandon Weiner, an aspiring musician from Detroit, took advantage of Thursday's warm temperatures and made his way to downtown Ann Arbor where he set up a makeshift stage in the graffiti alley along Liberty Street.

Weiner, who normally plays saxophone, mounted a trumpet to his guitar as a gimmick he's been practicing. He graced passersby with one-of-a-kind Bob Dylan covers — with flat-pitched trumpeting substituting for familiar harmonica wails.
"It's kind of a weird thing to do," he admitted to his audience. "As you can tell, I can't do any fingers with the trumpet, so it's kind of awkward to just play flat pitches."
