Wayne and anybody else who might be close enough to Dallas to come to  
the gig,

The gig is Nov. 16, next Sunday.  Below I'll paste the official  
announcement.

To be clear, I play in the group now but I'm not on the recording.  I  
wasn't in the group back then.  I get nothing from sales of the CD, I  
just recommend if you like jazz trombone you should get one.  Conrad  
Herwig made a guest appearance on the album...it has to one of his  
earliest recordings, he was still a student at UNT, but absolutely  
amazing playing.  Incredible solos also by Chris Seiter and Ken  
George.  Textbook examples of how to play lead by the great Dick Cole  
and John Osborne.  Wonderful bass trombone work by John Wasson and  
Chuck Mandernach.
