> Gene --following my last response, I now realize that you asked a serious

>
> First of all, refuse to ever solo anything but first, since that is your 
> comfort zone.
>
>  Second:
>  on your next camp visit, take the class session titled " Soloing After 
> the Clarinet et.al.".
>
> Third:   in your situation, if you miss  the opportunity to solo first, 
> then solo after the banjo, as all persons have quit listening, and you can 
> make as many clams as you want and no on will notice - -this gives you the 
> best opportunity to learn to improve your solos.  Remember - -follow the 
> banjo.  ( a 2nd choice is the follow the drums, at which time many in the 
> audience will have left the building).
