 Re: Have not played in 40 years!

Sounds like there are lots of us in the same boat. I put mine down and, except when my high school physics classes got to the unit on sound, didn't touch it for about forty years. Then my older brother (who had remained active) informed me that we would be playing for our mother's memorial service. Fortunately, I had kept my old instrument (still have it in reserve) which is quite good quality. We did the service, I loved doing it, and I haven't looked back. I am now involved in two very good community bands. Be patient with yourself, don't expect to pick up where you left off, and you'll have a blast.
