Creating the Mood You Want,

from an Elegant Trio to a Swinging Sextet


A guide to help you and your friends preview the Magnolia Jazz Band

Here we are (photo above) at last month's Baby Boomer/Senior Citizens Expo, chatting with people walking by. With a wide range of songs, we entertain people, from seniors to their teen-age grandkids, at parties and weddings, but who could have guessed we'd ever see a geezer trade show? I thought our society was obsessed with "youth". The boomers strike again!

Thanks to Roberto Gonzalez, of NuevaFoto Photography, for the wonderful picture. Left to right: Gary Milliken, Andy Norblin, and me. Roberto, looks like you caught Andy by surprise. Curious about what he was thinking.

Let me tell you a personal story about curiosity. I continually try to learn new things, to stay on top. Many of my friends do the same. We read a lot, talk a lot, and try new ideas, wondering what would happen if we did "this" or "that". This eagerness to explore something new, to enhance my old tried-and-true practices, stimulates my curiosity every minute of every day. True for you, too?
