Catch Up - Interesting Things in the Last Few Months

I've had some very interesting things going on in the last few months. Of course this gave me very little time to post blog entries on the events. The first that comes to mind is the very last gig that I, or anyone else, will do at the Frontier Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.

Nick De Gidido has basically always stayed at the Frontier and has put up his band members there. The Frontier was a great deal and it represents old Las Vegas, so we old fashioned entertainer types love it.

Here are the pics:






So you can tell that this was kinda wild. We had four horns, and guest bass player Gio Valle. We also had a sit in by my trombone teacher's son. Any of you who read all my stuff will know I was taught trombone by studio player (1947 to 1960 or so Paramount Studio Orch) Harold Diner. His son is a great, great drummer - Evan Diner. Evan has played with major persons including Nelson Riddle. So he fit in like perfection. Evan played a "head" with us, and then read a chart. He finds reading fun. Anyway this was a gas.

Unquestionably believe that which you stated. Your favorite
justification seemed to be on the net the simplest thing to be aware of.
I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while people consider worries that they just do not know
about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top as well as defined out the
whole thing without having side effect , people could
take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks
