Moe Jazz Festival

There are many celebrations happening in Latrobe City this long weekend - one of them is the Moe Jazz Festival. There is a street march - which the fire trucks lead - Latrobe City Band follows and then various others - finishing with the Jazz Band.
On occasions I help the City Band - today was one of those occasions! I can't even remember the last time I marched and played my cornet - that's how long ago it was!
And who reads music that close to their nose - I think I need a bell lyre - I had to take my glasses off to get the music in focus.
My conclusion - it was great fun - but I am exhausted - knees, shoulders, lower back, not to mention the thumbs!
