I just don't get in here enough, lol. Hope everyone in the States had a Happy Thanksgiving. Just wanted to let you all in on a new musical project I'm doing. I've hooked up with 4 other musicians, all solid pro's with at least 30 years experience each. We're putting together an "Elvis Tribute Show" based on the Elvis 1970 Las Vegas show called "Elvis - That's The Way It Was". It'll be done totally live, nothing pre-recorded, no sequences etc. As we assemble this, I'm finding that there was one heckuva horn section used throughout the show. So far, I've been using the "pop trumpets" KN7000 sound for these accents. Just wondered if anyone had something that they felt would be better regarding a trumpet/horn section sound?? If you do, I'd love to have it. BTW, if anyone would like to hear our "Elvis" (his name is Scott Norton) he has a website that's worth a listen, here's the link: http://www.scottelvisnorton.com/ I'm "guesstimating" that we are about 3 rehearsals away from taking this puppy on the road...I'll keep you posted.
