The contest entry form said "Void where prohibited", so I peed on the Captain's desk.

When was the Four Freshmen video recorded? The lighting makes it tough to determine how much gray hair some of the trombonists have…..LOL. I just gigged with Bernie and Jay last weekend. I have a feeling the video was at least 10-15 years old. Thanks!
