If I might make a suggestion, Terry…

When playing a brass or sax/flute sound, sing along with the melody. Whenever YOU need to take a breath, lift your fingers from the keyboard lead sound..! It will do wonders for the realism! 🎹🍺

On a different (long!) note… I played trombone in a brass band at a Belgian beer festival outside of Bruge as a youngster. A converted zeppelin hangar with a huge wall across the middle, dividing it in two. Each half held about 3000 drunk Europeans 🤪🍺

Each side had three stages, one at each end and one in the middle, so six bands playing total. Each band (in each half) would take it in turn to play a selection and every two songs, the next would play a quick ‘Ein Prosit’ with 3000 drunks singing along…

What a great gig! Prosit! 🍻

I`m pleased it brought memories of your contribution to the Belgium
beer festivals Diki,we had an annual weekend break in Ostend and on the Saturday night we were taken by coach to a town called Diksmuide.The
festival took place in the huge indoor market with a revolving bandstand in the center.Hope you`re missing the brunt of the storm in your part of the world.

Thanks Terry. Luckily both hurricanes went in well away from me, I’m up in the West Panhandle, in between Pensacola and Panama City. Both hurricanes were well to the south East. I’ve been through three fairly big hurricanes, my heart goes out to everyone that were hit directly… ❤️🙏🎹🌪️
