Ah, but we've met before. We had a cup of tea, mused about the Rascherian world, I had you finish a repad on a metal clarinet for a friend of mine whilst I skipped town... Buffalo was short lived, got drunk in Ypsilanti, MI for a couple years, Chicago seems to be working out better despite getting laid of from The Saxophone Shop back in the end of may... I'm working in a converted bank vault with a guy who used to work at The Brass Bow now. Things are going alright out here.
.. I tried responding to your status comment... .. but then I remembered.. .. Myspace sucks! .. Stupid thing won't work. .. Anyway.. yes! Too dang hot. .. I feel for you in that attic. .. Come onnnnn Fall!! .. ;-) ..

Hi Scott! Thank you so much for your words! It means a lot :) You play so beautiful and the songs I've heard here not only are they great but the first one remind me of Russia... could it be? I'd love to play a duetto of flute and saksofon with you someday... Un gran abrazo desde Uruguay!
