I've been a perpetual student at Collin College for several years playing bass in two of the combos at the school. I'm not working on a degree. It's a serious hobby only. I also play bass in a couple of combos outside of the school and direct one of those combos. I have arranged about a dozen jazz tunes for combo performance. I also play bass in a jazz big band outside of school on occasion.My goals - active in retirement, playing bass, riding a sweet Harley-Davidson Heritage Springer motorcycle on epic journeys, volunteer work at local community college, occasionally refurbishing vintage tube guitar amps and vintage tube stereo equipment. Most importantly, hanging out with my wonderful wife and riding with her in a sweet Corvette convertible. Here is stuff I used to do.
