Bill and Andrew---when I read the ad in the International Musician, I wished I were 34 again! You ought to hear the piano player in that band! He is phenomenal! Whoever gets the job is going to have a great time playing Dixieland!

Of course, if he goes sitting in 'round the clubs in that part of CT, he's gonna come up against ME! LOL!!!! However, there is brotherhood among us jazz clarinet players, 'cos there ain't many of us left!

Luv & peace and good reeds to all....TC

For any of the younger subscribers, The U.S. Coast Guard band is one
of the best kept secrets in the military music program ! This is a
GREAT opportunity for someone who wants a career as a performer with a
guaranteed income and a solid retirement.
