I am a amateur trombone player, I am 64, so my best playing days are still ahead. I enjoy your podcast, the stories, some of the advice, which I would like to hear more of, I would like to hear from some of the minority trombonist such as Wycliffe Gordon who is one of my favorites, along with Bill Waltrous, I enjoyed listening to Christian Lindberghs interview. Thank you very for your hard work gentlemen.
You know when you find people personally annoying, but still come back for more of what they do? Yeah, this is like that.
If you want to listen to a couple of morons interviewing talented musicians, then this is the podcast for you.
What planet is she on??
If I had 10 thumbs, I’d put them all up for you! Love the podcast. It’s my go-to podcast at the dentist’s office because the dentist doesn’t need to ask me to smile.
