Bobby Scann on trombone? Hey Jeanne, say hello to him for Barbone Street and
especially from trombonist Glenn Dodson. (Bobby is a fine player and a class
A guy who looks just like Tony Bennett.) We missed seeing him and having him
sit in this year.

Have Bobby lead Basin Street at 6:00 PM and we'll have Glenn do it at 9:00
PM during our benefit. That will provide 2000 miles of stereo separation and
Larry Walton in St Louis will be in the perfect spot. Listen hard, Larry, at
8 PM. 

Wish we could be there with you. Say, what is Spring Mountain Ranch?
Anything like those other "Ranches" in Nevada? :-) VBG

If so, we really wish we could be there.

Cheers,
Steve
