So you progressed on the theatre front? You had an abandoned location in mind like the Gare jazz.
Theatres are the type of venue we're aiming the band at. We've just started getting theatre bookings for a tribute band so we're now making contacts and friends on this circuit.
(Though I know I’m not good enough to try out for the slot)
Although I want everyone to be able to take a solo or ten, it's not a prerequisite so I'm not looking for the next Coltrane or Maceo.
or trombone (am I allowed to say this kind of thing here?)
I spoke to a lady who runs a similar type of band with a horn section and she told me that finding and keeping a trombone player is a lot easier than finding and keeping a trumpet player. In a perfect world we'd have two saxes, trumpet and trombone.
Wrong side of the estuary for me.
Phew!
The last thing I need is for the rest of the band to know how crap I really am.
Good luck!
Thanks.
