I assume you have to be at least 50 to get in the magazine? I'm sure you had to wait a while until you turned 50 or you would have been in it sooner.........lookin good Dom, Congrats!

Nice work Dom! When I was first starting out at this a few years ago, I got a lot of inspiration from your unique approach to the instrument. I feel like I am on the right track now. Thank You!

One of my favorite things I shared with my mom was the music events scheduled in the assisted living homes where she lived the last couple of years of her life. A sax player, polynesian dance culture, concert pianist were just a few of the entertainers that we saw together.
I know these people weren't paid much although they played their hearts out.
A very big hand to you Dom for being one of those entertainers!!!!
