Who is going to the 2017 International Trombone Festival??

I am excited about attending the festival. I am sure there will be a great turn out for the festival from the west coast but who else is planning to attend? I would love to put faces with names that I know from the forum.

I am far from the most active member here, but I will be at the festival for the last day!

Will be there- along with a lot of other guys from Central Washington University.

I'll be there! I'm flying out Sunday and heading home after July 4.

My daughter goes to Caltech in Pasadena, and she's working out there this summer, so I'm tying up a visit with the ITF.

Can't wait. It will be two in a row for me!

I'll be there for who whole dealio, I know John Lowe will be there with a BUNCH of Olds trombones in the display area.

I pretty excited first one, probably the only I'll get to on the west coast.

If we got together...what time would work?

I will be there every day. Mostly because it is on the West Coast and very close to me. But I've always wanted to attend.

I was seriously considering it, joined the ITA, looked at travel etc. But the exchange is brutal (40%) and, I thought, so is the weather (40 degrees).

But, to be honest, I'm regretting not going just a bit. It might have been fun to meet a bunch of the TTFers.

I'll be there - at least on Saturday, when I'm playing with the Bones West trombone choir.

Hope to run into some of you TTFers during the day Saturday.

Hi John

It is all good in comparison to Phoenix's 47 C.

I will be there, as almost always... I've only missed 3 in the entire history of ITW-ITF.

I was planning on stopping in Tucson and Phoenix after ITF, but I will definitely reconsider if it stays as hot as it's been lately.

Hi Doug

We are just finishing a heatwave. It should be a nice cool 40 or 41 C in another week.

I'll be there with Bones West. I'm fairly excited!

Doug, will you have your mouthpieces there?

ttf_Doug Elliott · Post by **ttf_Doug Elliott** » Tue Jun 27, 2017 12:25 am

Yes, pretty much everything I make will be available to try. I'm short on a few things.

To be fair, Redlands knows about the heat and the AC is going in every building, so it's just the 5 minutes between venues that will be warm...see you all there!

I will be there all four days, displaying part of my collection. The current plan is to have different horns every day...

Just got in last night!

Performing five unaccompanied world premiers this Friday at 1

Hope to see you all around - if anyone is at the Comfort Suites look out for the tired looking guy carrying a newborn and say hi!

I'm there Saturday... If anyone is looking at last minute plans, Goodnight Inn still has some rooms and reviews and prices are reasonable.
