Who's hard-hitting, humble, and has an aerodynamic haircut. None other than my guest for this episode, Dan Fornero. 

 From studios to stadiums, Dan always brings the heat. Dan is a founding member of the Vine Street Horns and since 2003 has also been an integral part of the powerhouse trumpet section of the Big Phat Band. Dan has toured the world with Phil Collins, Neil Diamond, Tom Jones, and Brian Setzer and has carved out a name for himself as one of the top-flight players in the LA recording scene.   

Check out what Dan has to say about being comfortable as the support guy, practicing on the "right side" of the horn, growing up in the drum corp world, missed opportunities at North Texas, why he recorded "Not So Old School," his special relationship with Gary Grant, still being blown away by the people he gets to work with, playing to 400, 000 people with the Vine Street Horns, and so much more!  

So pour yourself a big glass, pull up a chair, and let the hang begin!
