Steve's rehearsing today tunes for his next cool jazz gig....HAL MERRILL MUSIC at THE B SHARP in Tacoma, Washington on Friday,  February 24th. I'm not sure of start time yet, but will let everyone know when I do. O.K?
Well, we all know there will be more than one guy at this gig, don't we? O.K.....who's gonna be there?
