Christopher Bill & A Ton Of Friends.

As a break from all the political crap, I submit this....

The contest entry form said "Void where prohibited", so I peed on the Captain's desk.

Love it! And I like the outtakes at the end. Alex Iles just casually nails the lick up to high G, I think. Everyone sounds good. Wish I had been involved in this.

Nice.

That had to have been tons of work to edit together.

This is truly impressive, both in the musicianship and the presentation format.

I showed this to my kids, as I think seeing examples like this is especially important for my daughters. Featuring a recognizable, fun song makes it even better.

I think he does them at most ITFs. If you end up going to one I'd imagine he'd be super open to being involved - he's really really nice.

It was a great one. Takes the mind off of reality for a moment.

Thanks so much for posting. Even my wife, who usually only tolerates my morning YouTube trombone video viewing, loved it!
