One of those consists of trading the hand for the foot on the slide sometimes to end up a gig. Always a crowd pleaser. Don’t mind putting on a little show, as we spend most of our 1.5 hr concerts making sure we give the audience some pretty good Jazz. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>That, of course, when we were actually giving concerts. Nothing at all since last March due to the virus. No clubs are open, nor do they look like they will be able to open soon. Still, I get the horn out every afternoon and spend some time on the horn.
