Maybe I'm not so old after all. If I am in your audience I invite you to
include all of the variations that Steve identified including #13 ETC. Just
please not all on the same tune. LOL Actually some do overly arrange and of
course we don't need to hear every trick on every tune. But I would rather
you had 8 or 9 possibilities in your bag of tricks than to see you do a
horns-no rhythm chorus every third tune. And I like playing rhythm in groups that
come up with some creative variations. If I'm playing and looking out at who
is grinning and tapping versus who is asleep I believe I have plenty of
company in my preferences. I will probably never forget the lady who came up to
Larry's group after a concert to tell the tuba player that she had never
heard a tuba solo before. Now I know her memory wasn't that bad and when I think
of what she's been listening to week after week of scheduled entertainment
and never a tuba solo--well, that's SAD!
