I think it’s safe to say I’ve now reached the pinnacle of my career: I get to play with the Kit Kat Klub band! I like playing trombone by itself, but getting to do it in women’s clothes and doubling on tuba just adds a whole new dimension to being a musician. And the rest of the guys in the band, now I know what sisterhood feels like!
When I saw myself in the mirror I realized I look like a mix of my mom and Björn Borg (my mom’s never been much of a tennis player though). I did wish for a bigger cup-size, hoping to make my wife jealous. As it is she’ll just laugh at me, you just can’t have everything in life…
This production of the musical Cabaret is in Houston’s Hobby Center with TUTS, Theater Under The Stars. The orchestra in this production totals 11 musicians, with five of us onstage acting as the club band, that’s why we’re in drag. (The other guys are of course very envious, and I probably have to report a couple of them for sexual harassment after grabbing my tits). I’ve always liked this show, great (very tragic) story, great music and fun to play.

We’re in the process of wrapping up the recording part of my CD, then it’s on to mixing and mastering. I went over to Tierra Studios a couple of weeks ago to check out the new mixing console, a Solid State from England, priced like a nice medium sized house!
In my ignorance I didn’t think I would be able to tell the difference from the old console, but when Glenn played me some tracks from my CD, I couldn’t believe the difference in sound, amazing! There’s a clarity, depth and detail that just wasn’t there before. Glenn Wheeler and Bob Linder, the engineer and producer, are really excited to get the chance to mix the album on this new console, and I couldn’t agree more.
