John and I played in a band together in Germany back in the 1980s. He's a fabulous musician - plays pedal steel, sax, oboe, flute, clarinet, lap steel, dobro, bass and guitar. He plays all of them exceptionally good! He recently got off the road touring with Ronnie Milsap. Hope you enjoy these as much as I do. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=At_2XsgRTAg John is playing sax and pedal steel on this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_8jeK2-3Z0 John is being interviewed by Mel Bay Music in this clip. https://www.youtube.com/user/johnsaxsteel John playing a beautiful version of "God Bless The Child". The inset next to his name is him performing with Ronnie Milsap.

Hello Wayne, Thanks for dropping in for a look & listen. And yeah, John is a very talented musician and a super nice guy. You're right, I'd love to play music with him again. It was a real pleasure. I checked out your Marine Corp link. Very impressive! I was stationed in Vietnam about the same time as you. I was in the Army. I was stationed primarily in Pleiku (Central Highlands) with the Army's 4th Infantry Division. For the first months, I was a regular infantryman. But the last 9 months I was with the LRRPs. For those who may not know, that's Long Range Recon Platoons. I was there August if 1966 until September of 1967. I got shot in February of 1967 and spent almost a month at the Army hospital at Camp Zama Japan. Welcome home, my friend! I'm retired from the Army (1966 - 1988). Retired as an E-7. Anyway, thanks for dropping in and leaving those nice words about my friend. Best to you. Again ... welcome home! Alan

[quote=chulaivet1966]I checked out your Marine Corp link. Hey Alan.... Thanks for checking out the USMC link and the kind words....and the same back to you. Feb '66 - March '67 for me. Ha...oh yeah, I know where Pleiku is (down in II Corps) and also know that catchy little acronym LRRP. Glad you make it back from our picnic from a land far, far away. Many of our Brothers were not so lucky. Some years ago I also made my own personal DVD documentary about my experience there before I forgot anything further.....I think I'm getting old. Thanks for response....don't want to hijack your thread and wax morose here. Back to topic....

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
