Notes from a local horn player. Reflections on performances in and near Ann Arbor, Michigan. Written by a reed sideman. Saturday, July 09, 2005. Back under a basketball net. Performance number 19, Kids baseball tournament, Saline Big Band. Saline Big Band had been scheduled to play outside for this gig, but rain drove us inside. It was a fundraiser for Mott Children's Hospital. So why do we do it? Different reasons, I suppose. One motivation floated across my e-mail this morning:. I'm 56 years old, I'm n...

Notes from a local horn player: September 2005

Notes from a local horn player. Reflections on performances in and near Ann Arbor, Michigan. Written by a reed sideman. Saturday, September 24, 2005. Performance numbers 24 and 25, Noon wedding and evening 50th anniversary, Saline Big Band. When folks pay a band, I'm not sure they realize some of the expenses. For a $40 gig this evening, there was a 60 mile (roundtrip) drive, $12 for tux cleaning, and reeds for a bari sax and a bass clarinet. So it goes, I guess. Posted by Jon Margerum-Leys at 11:45 PM.

Performance number 35, Creekside Grille, The ii V I orchestra. It isn't often that I get to play lead tenor. I love my tenor. Charlene is her name and she's a 1941 Conn 10M. A beautiful horn, a great roaring beast of an animal. So it was fun to be playing her for the evening. Posted by Jon Margerum-Leys at 10:25 PM. From Lady Sun...
