Even after 20 years of playing, I still giggle like a little kid when I hear a solo like that! Three things, you'd better still be playing, what kind of horn, and what size mouthpiece you use? I love that casual walk away. Typical trumpet man, blow everyone away, then walk away like nothing happened! LOL

After 15 years of playing, I still LOVE hearing a solo like that! Great chops man, what size you use, and you'd better tell me you're still playing!!!
