Tom, (and all)

I was the first tuba player for that group, but I had to drop out 
because of a bit of over load (I was already playing in 7 other bands 
and I was also in the process of getting married!)

BTW, most of the Blow Kings are also members of the California 
Repercussions and the leader, Paul Zinn is also a wizard arranger.
