Lots of great tuba playing at this event. What a great concert Saturday night. Munn Zee Wong did two outstanding solos with the LA Metro Brass Band, and the Golden State British Brass Band played with Patrick Sheridan and David Childs and brought the house down. It's really too bad that so few people showed up to enjoy it! But those of us that were there showed lots of appreciation for the performers so we were treated to an encore.

How about that Jazz concert with jim Self ... that was just as off the hook IMO... Patrick Sheridan is SOOOoooooooOOOOOooo hilarious to watch perform ... what a TRUE entertainer! David Childs is very wise for his age .. man that guy's insights into performance etiquette etc ... I guess that is why he is where he is professionally. Anyone who wasn't there missed out big time. I don't care what the excuses were for not going ... huge opportunity missed. All the LA guys were absolutely amazing and their insights and experience they passed on to those few in attendance will benefit us all ... I am so glad I went .. Maybe next year everyone will be a little more serious about investing in themselves and go to ITEC That would just be insane to miss ... if it is about money ... you have a year's notice ... start saving

Notice the spelling of your post is SWRETC, and I did indeed post it long ago but under SWRTEC 2009.

BTW someone left their euphonium there sometime Saturday. Anyone missing it?
