I Chose The Trombone Because The Trombone Players In The Marching Band Got To Be Up Front With The Majorettes (because Of The Slides) And I Loved That!

I Never Felt Like That In My Life. I Didn't Know Human Beings Played These Instruments. I Heard Them In Chicago And Louisville And St. Louis All My Life, You Know? But I Didn't Know Human Beings Played Them, You Know? So The Next Day I Went To Coontz Junior High School And I Started On Sousaphone, Tuba, B-flat Baritone, E-flat Alto, French Horn, Trombone.
