It's OK if the glass is only half full.

After a very long life as an amateur trombonist, I know that I'll never come close to having the high range of Kiril Ribarski;

Or the technique of Bob McChesney:

But I can make music like Dusty Dickerson:

And that makes me happy to be a trombonist.

Is that really Dusty playing the trombone solos? Thought he was a Dixielander:

Alas, maybe a little too much information...............

I think I'll try to focus on remembering just the solos.
