Almost there!

Great concert in Stevens Point last night... everything is clean, notes in place, and ready to go.  Now time to "dirty" up those blues solos a little bit!

Will be practicing to keep tone in place and break in reeds this week.  I leave Wednesday around 3:00.

Ladies Must Swing

Today and Tonight, Bayshore Mall 12:00;1:30, 6:00-8:30
I enjoy working with the Ladies - they are so kind, and truly enjoy and respect the music they play.  It isn't a girl power thing, just great respect for women in jazz!
I have also come to the conclusion, in the past several days, that I will always be an alto player at heart.  I like playing my tenor, but the comfort zone just isn't there, like it is on the alto.  I'll keep working on that!

We are off and running!

One month to the musical trip of a lifetime.  This past month has been a whirl wind of work activity, and more attention has gone into listening, singing and relaxing.

Now is the time to wrap up the loose ends, work on the business end of the trip, and get ready to relax and enjoy!
