'Hope this exhibition shows up on youtube, or in some manner those that can't be in attendance, get to see it later. Phantom has had videos of these type segments taped it the past for future viewing, and its made for enjoyable listening and watching, imo. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jd83 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I'm hoping to go, but it's not looking good right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those who have not seen what BRASSSSSO is referring too, this will have to do until there's a more current version. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tbw3VXneGso Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocketman Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I believe we are up to about 60 people. 100 would be better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatbrassboy Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 I believe we are up to about 60 people. 100 would be better! Does this reunion include all decades? If so, that appears to be a paltry showing so far. For their sake, I hope there are a lot of last-minute sign-ups that can play! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1956OPR Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 I will be there. Pray for me since I have never played a trumpet (we of course played soprano bugles in 1956-1960) and whatever facility I had to read sheet music faded a long time ago. Nonetheless, I have been taking trumpet lessons since early April and so far these 71- year old lips and lungs have responded. I only hope my valve fingering will respond as well. I am genuinely delighted to return to my hometown and participate, for the first time, in playing Elsa's Procession. And so will all other Phantom alumni, in spirit if not in place.
