So how's retirement? I hope to unretire when I finally get a massive amount of dental work done, but being away from the biz scene sure as hell ain't all bad.

Phil Woods praised his dentist for prolonging his career!
I like retirement, but there are stages.
I was very glad to not have to keep up the schedule w/Ballet, lots and lots as the season went on.
I was still playing extra sax w/SFS until just recently, but i just don't practice and stay in shape,
and I told them I was bowing out.
There was some residual disappointment there, but I'm fine with it now.
I do still play with the Clarinet Qt, and still arrange for it, so that's ideal right now.
I still go to the Mendocino Music Festival, Lead Alto with the Big Band, but it's ear-plugs all the way,
and I don't seek out Big Band playing anymore.
I do record friends' Concerts from time to time, so that's another Hobby.
Just a Sony D100, but it's great for under $800.
I hope you will be altissimo-ready soon!
Seems like you're peachy. Having that clar. qt. outlet is no doubt a good thing. Guys I know/knew who retired, put their axes away or sold 'em and totally stopped playing seem kinda............listless.
It's the Writing/Arranging on Finale that keeps things humming for me,
even tho I'm playing only a little.
My High School teacher said a Complete Musician Plays, Writes and Listens.
2 out of 3 ain't bad...
