"I'm glad to see he's playing, and if I know Jay your group is probably exploring the fringes, and laughing all the while."

Yeah, you know Jay. We've been doing some of the oddest transcriptions -- Feldman and Carter and whatnot, and Jay has demonstrated the greatest courage in ignoring composers' wishes about timbre and extended technique and just playing it on tubas.

Not to mention the unfortunate gig in which we "interrupted" an awards banquet with our rendition of Edgar Winters' "Frankenstein"...

With at least three of us out here, New York has, I suppose, become the World Capital of weird-music-lovin' tuba players!

I'll tell Jay you said hi. And get up here in April - it's less than four hours' driving...
