I’ve never worn a full suit and tie for a gig before, or I should say a rock ‘n’ roll gig, because I did wear a tux many times for orchestral trombone gigs and concerts. People were asking me why and it was partly to be squirrelly and do something different and it felt good if not sweaty. I had also been to the memorial of a friend from work earlier in the day, and decided to stay classed up in honor of him. I put the program from the memorial on top of my amp and played real hard for Tony, who struggled for so long with mental health issues. He was a good man and one funny mofo, beloved by a HUGE community.
