1. Yes, I played in a rock band a couple years after high school. We wrote our own music, but our biggest hit was "Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You." I had tons of fun and lots of great memories (don't get me started), but didn't make any money. The closest we got to the big time was opening for Asleep at the Wheel!

2. No; and I wouldn't play the flute anyway--I want to improve my drumming and learn to play sax

3. I gave my flute to my niece* in Hawaii when she was starting junior high and wanted to know if she should join the band. Hardly any of the students had their own instruments; they had to rent or share them. A couple of years later, the flute was stolen from the band hall, so I don't know where it is any more. :(

*Hawaii has extended family relationships; I was an Auntie to a lot of kids, but Jen was actually related to me by in-laws

4-6. No kids/grand-kids, but my brother Jay's four children all played in band

1. I played in college. I played in the marching band, and I played bass clarinet in the college concert band. I was VP of the band my junior year. I traveled all over the United States, and marched in Tokyo with the band.

2. I picked up my clarinet for the first time in 20 years to travel to a college band reunion this past October in Indiana.

3. I still own my clarinet. The pawn shop pays me to continue owning it...

4. I have three kids; they're still not old enough.

5. See number 4; I am not a grandparent.

6. Unfortunately, none of my children play in the band. Two are not old enough, and the one who is old enough would rather be a basketball player.
