Trax,

Wow I'm deeply flattered. Thank you for your kind words. Never did I ever think that anyone would say that I've inspired them in any way, shape, or form when it came to the trumpet world. I'm speechless!

That quote inspired me and that's why I put it out there. It is one of the simplest and most powerful statements I've ever heard at a commencement speech for a College.

And now another quote that pertains specifically to me but may be relevant, "Stop mourning the past! You're going to be a far better player then you ever were." - Alex Yates my trumpet master!

Put the two together and you have a recipe for success that can be achieved with some honest to goodness work!

Thanks Trax, and keep tootin'

John
