[NewMusic] KYLE'S HORNS STOLEN

[Phillip Greenlief]

I had a soprano saxophone (my favorite selmer MK VI) stolen from a car (the trunk, mind you) in LA...you have my condolences and sympathy. I'll drop the word over at A&G and Best Music in Oakland that this happened...and give them your number in case they see anything.
   
  Massive sympathy!
