Hey there:

A quick announcement for one of our summer tours. I will not be soloing this summer, but our Euph player is the featured soloist. All concerts are free!

Here is the schedule:

July 4, 7:30 pm Indianapolis, IN Indiana War Memorial
July 5, 7:00 pm Auburn, IN Rotunda Museum
July 6, 6:00 pm Battle Creek, MI Kellogg Auditorium
July 7, 7:30 pm Albion, MI Victory Park Band Shell
July 8, 7:30 pm Lansing, MI State Capital
July 9, 8:00 pm Bay View, MI Bay View Festival
July 10, 7:30 pm Mackinaw City, MI Band Shell
July 11, 7:00 pm Bay City, MI Wenonah Friendship Shell

It'd be a real treat to meet and greet with fellow tubenetters! As always, I'm the tall bald guy with the big tuba.

Thanks!

Greetings,

Unless something unusual is happening, the euph soloist for the WPAFB is Dan Bentley. He is a member of All the King's Tubas. We have sound bytes on my website if you want to hear him playing. He generally plays the high parts on most stuff. He is doing most of the pyrotechnics on Willy Tell. The link is below. I'm not sure what his rep is on this tour.

Tim.. you beat me to it! Sorry for the delayed reply.. we're out in a field all day long waiting on rain and trying to prepare a big military tattoo.

Dan would indeed be our Euph soloist. However, I just caught wind that he may not be soloing this summer. Unsure why... If he does, it'll be American Portrait.. typical theme and variations kind of deal.. very well played.

Even without a Euph soloist, it'll be great to meet and greet with other tubenetters!

Thanks!

Nice crowd last night. Looking forward to more nights of crowds like that.
