I'm starting up my big band again after a 15-year hiatus.

I had a rehearsal last week at the union hall. Here's a shot of the saxophone section.

Jerry Dodgion-lead alto
Jay Brandford-alto
Marc Phaneuf-tenor and clarinet
Alex Hoffman-tenor (very gifted young man. He was sent as a sub by Chris Byars and he knoked us out. Big sound like Lucky Thompson or Frank Wess)
Jason Marshall-baritone and bass clar.

geez, too bad you couldn't find any brand-name players


Hope to hear you guys sometime in the city.
