Subj: Re: [kl] Fastest Flight of the Bumblebee I have heard
Date: Fri, 29 Nov 2002 23:06:27 -0500

Hi all,
I lknow it's been a while since I've typed, but I came in on this one. I
have a copy of Flight of the Bumblebee, and the notes are so high in parts
that I can't even hit the first one. I am going to get it eventually, but it
seems like it's gonna take forever. Do any of you out there have any tips to
help me get it faster and remember it for a copncert?
