After two performances I can say WOW!!! The Glenn Miller Band is fantastic. All the guys are fine musicians and nice people. The vocalist , Julia is also fantastic.
There are No talking during performances, Never be late( that is a fine of $$$$), play your part
the first time, dynamics are a big thing here. the band plays PPP to FF. Always look your best on stage, cleanly shaven or beards must be neatly trimed. YOU HAVE TO PRACTICE Every DAY!!!
I love this!!!!!!!!!! The leader, Larry O'Brian has really high expectations and he plays the trombone GREAT.
So far road life is pretty nice. I do miss my family.

Gary, that sounds wonderful!
ReplyDeleteGo, man, go!
ReplyDeleteHey Gary - Given a choice would you rather play dances or concerts?
What do the other members of the band feel - dances or concerts?
Thanks!
John Cooper
Everyone likes concerts. They are shorter and the audience is their just to listen. There are lots of rules for each venue that I will post over the next few days. This is a very structured situation with many guidelines.
ReplyDeleteTho longer, I'd think a dance would be more fun, more energy coming from the dancers than from folks trapped in seats.
