Saw the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra led by Wynton Marsalis last night at SF Jazz and it was tremendous. They played Monk tunes, and Wynton did an intro for each song with a little background and Monk anecdotes. Great players and amazing solos by essentially every one of the 15 players. The encore was a sextet of drum/basss/piano/sax/trombone/trumpet playing Crepescule With Nellie and that was great too. I'm not the biggest big band fan, or even a big Wynton Marsalis fan, but they were introduced as the best big band in the world and I have to agree.

Get better soon Shelly! As we age we just have to deal with our increasing physical limitations, as we'll get new ones on a regular basis until it's over. I know it sucks to try to stay healthy when our body keeps letting us down. So, we're in Pagosa Springs CO for spring break, and wife and kids go skiing at Wolf Creek Monday. I'll stay in the condo and read or watch movies, due my lung issue. Tuesday we'll spend a large part of the day at the hot springs, and return home Wednesday. We had the condo till Thursday, but my wife has to work then - otherwise they would ski two days.

Hope it's not too bad Shelly, heal well and quickly....definitely worth getting an opinion for form..... Me: back from a whirlwind weekend in NJ, Bar-Mitzvah and other family togetherness.....made great time driving, both ways....
