I had no idea Jay Friedman had retired. Does anyone know if Charlie Vernon or Gene Pokorny are doing a recital in the near future?

A commercial grade firework blew up the guy's car. Not a crime to be stupid, but I'm glad more people didn't get hurt.

It was so nice when he used to hold that in Redlands, CA, about 30 minutes away from me.

@tofu I must've been thinking of some other car that exploded on the freeway.

My money is on Fabrizio. :laugh:

In other news I learned that apparently Chicago once had a football team. :laugh:

BTW, 63 years is beyond impressive.

I used to play in a band, where the director was a clarinet player in the Baltimore Symphony. He retired around 2105, with something like 52 years in the symphony. The stories...!

Wow, so he started in 2053??

I didn’t think we’d allow clarinetists to harness the power of time travel. Too dangerous.
