And before the SJ Taiko, there is a performance by the San Jose Metropolitan Band starting at 11:15am. We're playing some fun tunes (I play lead trumpet). Come on out & enjoy and say 'hi' if you get a chance. And this just in - our tune list:

Mary and I will be there. We had to miss it last year, but we had a great time a couple of years ago when we went.
