I started playing in 1968 in 5th grade and played all through jr, high, sr. high and college band and marching band taking up the Eb in High School and college. I sutdied for 7 years with the first chair of the Army Band here in DC but fell in love with biology equally with music. Ended up studying bio and environment and have been in the federal govt for the passt 20 years. I also sing and direct church choirs and learned how to transpose into C at an early age so could read off piano/flute/oboe parts at church which made me "marketable" to church groups. A year and a half ago i realized i really missed playing clarinet more often that a couple times a year and joined DC's only community band DC Different Drummers and have loved every minute of it. We even get to go to Sydney Australia in 2002! Now THATs what I call a band trip <G> i like the threads about how many of us have "day jobs" to afford our hobby. I do hope if nothing else, those of you who pursue other carreers other than music to not wait 20 years or more to get back into it. If for no other reason....youll meet other people in community bands, church choirs etc with "day jobs" who might offer you a "day job" too! Blake
