Dave,

It was nice meeting you the other day. The article is great, thanks for sharing our story with the community. You should come join us as part of our PR group, no musical experience other than the love of it is necessary. Thanks again.

Great article…although Tom Warner is a percussionist, not a clarinetist. :)

Thanks for the positive article!

Even though he's obviously capable of, ahem, blowing his own horn, I figured I would ID a guy I actually recognized from his life outside the band. In Photo 9, the guy in the red-white striped shirt second from the photographer in the trumpet section: John Metzger, whose restaurant is now conveniently located out by Jackson and Zeeb Roads. Tina Reed, of the Ann Arbor News recently wrote a piece on John and Metzger's.

Hi Dave — You took a lot of information from our rehearsal and turned it into a well-written article that was fun to read. If I wasn’t already a part of this organization —- I would want to join the band! Great pictures, too!

It was a pleasure meeting you and talking with you at the rehearsal. Thanks for the great article!
