Photo of USAirways Crash & Rescue
15 Jan 2009 Author: Andrew In: NewsHere is an up-close photo of the USAirways plane crash on the Hudson today.
I’m thinking of using this blog for more personal use. I have many interests, mostly musical, but a few that fall outside that landscape. I just might be writing more about those few other interests… Let’s see what 2009 brings!
New Show Dates
12 Dec 2008 Author: Andrew In: NewsHey there. Just a quick post about some upcoming show I have. First is Nees and Vos. We’re playing at the great Mercury Lounge on December 28th! Come on down.
Next is another date with The Bobby Sanabria Big Band at (Le) Poisson Rouge on December 29th.
Hope to see you all there. More details coming soon.
Bose Corporation
6 Nov 2008 Author: Andrew In: NewsThe Bose Corporation has licensed a song from the Afro-Cuban album called “D Train” for use in product demonstrations at their retail stores. I play the trumpet solo on this tune!
So if you’re in a Bose store in the near future, ask to to hear Bobby Sanabria Big Band!

Last night was a ton of fun. The band took their performance to a whole new level.
We were fortunate to have the gig filmed in HD. I haven’t seen the footage yet, but if it looks any good, we’ll sure post it for public viewing.
We made a lot of new friends. One in particular happened to be taking photos. His name is Ovi Dio and he did an amazing job. My favorite photos so far. You can see them here.
Thanks to all who came out! See you at the Bitter End on July 11th.
