The Don

Our body clocks can be a pain in the rear sometimes. Got to bed at 3am and wide awake at 7am. Mind you for the last 15 years plus I have survived on 4-5 hours sleep a night anyway, so glad they are not stock-taking at work.
Sad news that 2 local musicians have passed on to the great big band in the sky. Our thoughts and condolences go out to their families.
Well after 30+ years of playing a Large Bore Trombone, I finally took the plunge today and purchased a medium bore, which I know will be easier on my chops, but will take a bit of time to get used to (hope it's not 30 years plus cos I wont be around then me thinks) It's funny, I remember when I was about 10 years old, walking through town to the local youth orchestra, Trombone case in hand, feeling as proud as punch. Today 40+ years on, I walked through town with a bone case again, feeling very self conscious that fok thought I was with the mafia? and carrying a sub macine gun.!!!!
