I guess I haven't updated that. It's a Rudy Meinl Bayreuth 5/4 BBb. I got it from a local community player. He was able to attend the concert and hear it from the other end!

Here is our Lincoln Civic Orchestra (community orchestra that's been around for about 45 years, I believe) low brass section. I played with the group for several seasons about 10 years ago, had to leave for scheduling reasons, then started back again last season. It's grown to about 90 people.
