Hey Mike! This is Jim Ferris, ('76 grad - sax), Gail's brother ('72 grad- flute) and long time admirer of your incredible talent. Stil remember when Maynard Fergueson called you out of the audience to play with his band at the MCC High School Jazz Festival!!! Living in North Carolina these days...
@saxplayr2000 JIM! HEY! Somehow I didn't see your comment post till today! Great to hear from you and thanks for the nice recollections. Yes, I was class musician with Gail--only the administration elected to literal scissor me out of the photo of me and Gail, you may recall. Speaking of talent, you know, I've always regretted we never played together while you were at Eastman. Anyway, I'm happy to hear from you; please let's keep in touch.
@saxplayr2000 Hi and thanks so much for commenting! We must know each other, since you knew I was a Gates boy. Let's see, who can you be...? Hmmm, such suspense!
