Eric,
Gee, thanks for the compliments that I DO seem to fit your insulting catagories when you really do not even know me. You do not know my age, you do not know what I have all done in life, in short, you do not know me period. I too have a wife, and I have a son in college. Why I chose to retire is personal, but you seem to have already made up your mind why. I did not check out of any "scene" because it was not worth it anymore as you say. Several factors came into play, and I felt it was time to walk away. I made the right decision. You refer to my "era", but what era am I from? I have no clue what you mean, but it comes across as demeaning and insulting. We were talking about restoring old clarinets here, and now I am being neatly tucked into some box of your making, and that I do not care for. My point was the older large bore clarinets fit the music of their day just as the saxophones made back then fit the sound and music of that era. Instruments evolve, and the clarinet unlike the saxophone has evolved, and is still evolving. We can value the instruments of the past, some are worth restoring for those who appreciate them, but time moves on. Try following how flutes evolved over thousands of years, and they are still evolving in many ways. That was my point. I wish you the best.
