Well, ok, it is a bit hard to play a wind instrument with a mask on, but we put them on when we weren’t playing. <u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Also, had a look at Weary Blues & Si Tu Vois Ma Mere. Both Si Tu Vois & Sentimental Journey we have, over the years, played but they never took off for us. Both tunes we tried a bit up tempo from the norm, and it works for us better in both cases. Still, for the songs to begin to actually function well requires playing live over & over, until they become natural. A practice is never the same! <u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">No possible gigs in the future as everything musical is closed down.
