Jim,
If you're out there, phone home.
Everyone else, if you have news, please update me.
As I try to connect kids with instruments, I am always inspired by the generosity you showed me at the Buy and Sell in Eugene about a billion years ago.
Thanks.

I saw Jim at our concert last Sunday night at Washburn Park. I will pm you with his phone number. The Tuba Meister is alive and well.

There's a name from my past whom I've never met. Before computers and Tubenet, selling a good tuba was more difficult and it took time to post an ad (International Musician for me), have it printed a month or so later, and have someone respond. This was in the early 80's. Well, Jim responded to my ad selling my 188 Anniversary Model tuba. He was thrilled when he finally got it from me and he sent me some tuba t-shirts from his Buy and Sell Center as a thank you.
Does anybody know if he still using this tuba? If anybody speaks to him, please tell him I said hello!!
