Tiptons (mostly) European Tour Spring 2007
We welcomed back Sue Orfield on Tenor Sax, and Tina Richerson became our Baritonista.
We had a fantastic and very fun tour of Italy, Slovenia, Austria and Germany in March/April 2007.
25 cities in 31 days, with quite a few kilometers and greek salads under our belts - and lots of new friends.
We taught music workshops in Slovenia, Austria and Germany, and met some wonderful other bands - like The Eternals
from Chicago.
