friends, and after the concert we just kind of hung out in the hall, waiting for traffic to clear a little. We were the last ones in the hall when Wynton came back on stage. He invited us to come up to the stage. We went up and talked to him for about 30 minutes. He let us handle his trumpet. I have no idea how he can play that thing. It weights about 10 times what a normal trumpet weights.

Anyway. He was a pretty cool dude.
