Best Amusing Band Moment; We'd just taken delivery of our brand new Courtois Trombones when on the way to a band job the solo Trom and I ran out of petrol, we walked 1/2 mile to the petrol station and filled our petrol can when we got to the car we realised we didn't have a nozzle ....so out of the bubble wrap came the trombone with detachable bell, it worked a treat but we got caught out at the job after the audience complained of the hall smelling of petrol and my new trom turned black!
Anything Else ?
Happily married to our 2nd Trombone, we've 2 lovely little girls and the eldest has taken a shine to the Cornet and is doing really well she's taking after her ..... well I'm not really sure....... but she's doing great!
