New Member: Band Leader from Seattle

[Gandalfe]

Greetings. Like a lot of you here, I returned to music performance, and in my case after a ~30 break. That was in 2002. Now I create bands like the Microsoft Jumpin' Jive Orchestra, now in it's tenth year of providing great dance music in the Seattle area.

A woodwind player, I have admin'd on the Sax on the Web forum, and now admin on the Woodwind Forum. I am called upon to help parents with young musicians, hobbyists looking for that killer instrument, and family find that perfect instrument, locate that hard to find music arrangement, and/or recommend a great music instructor or repair tech.

I look forward to getting to meet the people on this august forum so that I can point my peeps here for those questions that are beyond my expertise.
