Simon the Sorcerer Hints
How do I get rid of the sousaphone player?
1 of 7: The wise owl has a pretty big hint for you here if you want it.
2 of 7: Melons and musical instruments don't go well together (or something like that).
3 of 7: Finding the melon is probably the hard part here. You'll have to grow your own.
4 of 7: The magic beans that the oaf (near the crossroads) has will grow watermelons. All you need to do is help out the oaf -- another question tells you how.
5 of 7: Just look for a place to plant the beans now.
6 of 7: Try a well-fertilized location.
7 of 7: Use them in the compost behind Calypso's cottage, and you have your watermelon. Just use it on the sousaphone, and when you talk to the bard, he should give you his instrument.
