[Trombone-l] 5 AM concerts

[David OLIVER]

The Costa Rican Trombone Quartet guys referred to this when they performed 
at the ITF in Nashville, which now would be 5 years ago?

They "serenaded" the spouse of one of the attendees with one of their pretty 
arrangements. He was the first one to jump up and shake all of their hands 
when they were done.

Alas, here in the U.S. the neighbors would call the police if you sent a 
quartet over to "woo" a girlfriend at 5 am.
