I’m on day 21,105 of my 34,411 day challenge of listening to music that contains chord changes that routinely change every measure and sometimes two chords per measure.

I didn’t like Wicked.

Sad to hear that Finale is dead. But you know what hasn’t been discontinued? My pen!!! #YeaYeaYea

@ComFest Make This HAPPEN!! I need to be the speaker at 2:20! I have a presentation ready called: Jazz - The best thing to happen since things started happening

We held mock auditions for the FJO and we are excited to announce that a senior trumpet from Capital University won!!! Since it was a mock audition, this kid didn’t really win anything. Hence the term, mock audition. Better luck next time kid!

Word through Scott Garlock is that Bill Holman passed away. Sad day. But a sincere thanks for your music.

ATTN Clarinet Doublers: Please buy this clarinet mute and bring it to my gigs. If you sound like you typically sound while playing the “agony stick,” I will hit the mute button. This will save all of us from your attempts at the clarinet.

I’m most offended by the font choice rather than any of the musical performances. #SuperBowl

AND! YOU’RE WELCOME!!

I haven’t tweeted in 3 months. I’d like to say that I’ve had a ton of gigs…but…well…you know…

Scott Belck just made the naughty list. If you come to see me play with Scott “Belch” tonight, you might listen for all my Ben Webster quotes.

The Other Paper is releasing a story about the FJO later this week. The allegations that my musicians write on my music, IN PENCIL to help them remember key changes, is categorically FALSE! I would never allow such a thing.

Opting Out! Twitter, now X is charging all users starting Monday. You can do a opt-out by this. I do not give permission for X to charge $4.99 a month to my account and all my pictures are the property of mine NOT X! I’m also acknowledging that I’m over 75 to believe this works.

Mine is a duvet. #YeaYeaYea

It was a pleasure to play in front of all my fan at the Columbus jazz and ribs fest. He was extremely excited to hear me play.

I’m excited to announce that no one will dance at the FJO this Monday.

Wait for it. 🤣🤣🤣

@ashjazz I was going to Swing some Sousa!! And if that doesn’t work I’m calling off my new Lee Greenwood arrangement but it’s in 3/4.

@FakeWiester Did Holman write music for parading? Wasn’t aware…

Does anyone have a flat bed truck I can borrow? The FJO Combo just got asked to do a parade.

Bob Larson and I just lost in pickle-ball to Steve Schaar and Matt Ellis. Boy. Steve and Matt going to have a rough Monday night.

I’m still holding out that SCOTUS does not rescind the Brazilian record debt relief package that I championed in DC last year.
