“Planetarium a popular group, captivated the crowd with plena music, a type of sound which began more than 100 years ago bringing the stories of Puerto Rico’s history and folklore to the world. It became popular in the 1990’s when modern sounds were incorporated to it. So proud to be part of the re-opening of Ball&Chain, a Miami institution since 1935! Orquesta Calle Sol played salsa brava on Calle Ocho in Little Havana! Enjoyed the crowd, the place, and the whole night!

What a pleasure to play with these great musicians!
One of the highlights of my life – once again playing with such talented musicians! What an honor and a pleasure! Mona, Camacho, Daniel, Oscar, and myself on horns, and an amazing band backing Ralphy Ray and Larry Garcia! Awesome night all around.
I just sold my first student trombone from childhood! Bittersweet moment, parting with a horn that has been with me since 1979! My 1950’s King Cleveland was awesome! It was played in two countries and 4 states, and patiently waited for me in storage in 5 more. It’s been on hundreds of stages, in parades, auditions, and football games, and was played in the Vancouver World’s Fair and on Main Street at Disneyland! It survived a building full of smoke from a pipe bomb explosion and falling down the stairs with me while marching. Over the years the bell was dented, tuning slide jammed, the inner slide broke into two pieces and was soldered back together many times. It was carried on many buses to schools and long walks home. It taught me about patience and recovery. And metal working. And tarnish. And jazz and blues. Carrying it everywhere gave me a sense of identity and helped me become comfortable being an extrovert, having to tolerate many nicknames and answer questions like “What’s THAT?” and “Isn’t that for boys?” and “Don’t you need long arms to play the trombone?” Today, with almost no lacquer left, no spot without a dent, the slide sticking in three places, and the eternally broken crossbar needing yet another repair, it goes on to the next person to give it new life and enjoy! Goodbye good old friend!
Acabo de vender mi primer trombon estudiantil de mi ninez! Momento agridulce, ya algo que estuvo comigo desde 1979. Mi Cleveland King de la decada de 1950 fue impresionante! Se tocado en dos paises y 4 estados. Estuvo guardado en 5 estados mas donde espero pacientemente por mi. Ha estado en cientos de escenarios, desfiles, audiciones, y juegos de futbol. Fue tocado en la Feria Del Mundo de Vancouver y en la calle principal (Main Street) de Disneylandia. Sobrevivió la explosion de una bomba casera, y una caida en unas escaleras conmigo durante una de mis marchas. Durante los años, la campana fue abollado, el ajuste deslizante atascado, y la vara interior se rompió en dos pedazos y se soldó de nuevo muchas veces. Fue cargado en muchos buses a colegios y a largas caminatas a casa. Me enseno la paciencia y recuperacion. Y a trabajar en metal. Y la oxidation. Y el jazz y el blues. Llevarlo a todas partes me dio un sentido de indentidad y me ayudo a estar comoda siendo una persona extrovertida, teniendo que tolerar muchos apodos y respondes preguntas como “Que es ESO?” y “No es para ninos?” y “Acaso no necesitas brazos largos para tocar el trombon?” Hoy, casi sin laca restante, sin ningun lugar que no tenga mella, con la vara trabada en tres lugares, y el travesano eternamente roto, pasa a una nueva persona para darle una nueva vida y disfrutarlo! Adios mi bueno y viejo amigo!

Debbie was invited to march and play in the 13-piece James Madritsch Band at Bayview’s spectacular 4th of July Parade – complete with cannons and fire trucks cooling down the day! The Humboldt Park Association judges awarded Bonegal, Dale ‘Mr. Trumpet’, James Madritsch, Jake the trombone, Greg Doby, and others “Number 1 Unit” in the parade!
Sat in with Blai Fontanal’s band performing the sounds of Amaparita Roca, Tablon, and Brazil through the narrow streets on this 4 hour parade in Sitges for Carnaval 2011! People threw confetti, danced, cheered, partied, drank, marched, and celebrated this long-time tradition outside Barcelona!
You know you’re at a special gig when the horn section includes Mr. Trumpet and Bonegal… The crowd at La Pica danced to two sets of fiery Puerto Rican salsa sounds from Rumbon D’Esquina until wee hours of the morning. During the fast, hectic music, Tony gave hand signals to the band members from the side of the stage. He’d let us know it was time to move on to different sections of the songs, cueing the horns to play the Mambo using the classic rockers horn sign, holding down his middle two fingers with his thumb. Tapping his forehead with closed fingers and thumb meant it was time to play the Mona section. Finally, he’d call the end of a song with his raised fist, indicating “out.” Deb jammed on bone with Rumbon D’ Esquina in Milwaukee’s Historic Mitchell District at Casa Vieja’s outdoor Summer Party! After the rain let up, the 10 musicians of Rumba D’ Esquina kept the crowd dancing to 2 hours of high-energy Latin tunes like Vamos A Rier Un Poco, Se Le Ve, Sacude La Mata, Ella Menea, and Con Fuego! Great guys; amazing music – thanks Tony! Enjoy these photos from the gig!  Deb playing bone with Milwaukee's AllStar Superband Sat in on 3rd Bone with the All-Star Superband for a night of Basie! Great gig, packed house at a great Irish Pub downtown Elm Grove! Thanks Mike and Gary! Great gig with wonderful people. Between 5-8 trombonists played mainly quartet arrangements of beautiful music scored for only trombones! Highlights were Beatles tunes and 76 Trombones and learning how one pregnant trombonist who played with us can be and still have lung power! Thanks Kent!

Paul is working on a new album and I had the opportunity to be the first trombonist recorded by Brian at Mike Hoffman’s place in Bayview! “Debbie is a talented trombonist who became a member of Makeno Son in 2008. Filled with flashes of energy and knowledge, she demonstrated great musical skills and rhythm, In addition to team work and responsibility. In each of the rehearsals and performances, Debbie showed her enthusiasm and love for music represented through her trombone.” Makeno Son has been playing for ten years in many venues including festivals, private performances, weddings and TV appearances in Ecuador- South America and the United States. Makeno Son plays a variety of Latin-American music including boleros, ballads, huapangos, sones, cumbias, rancheras, waltz, salsa, etc. Their musicianship earned them a lot of respect and a lot of fans for the Latin American music in Ecuador and the United States.
