At left, Dana Poissin in Charlie Deming's "Mr. Big".
Remembering Dana Poissin - I dont know if I'd formally met him yet. But here is how I first encountered him one on one.
I'd just signed up for school and I was at the ticket counter at the student union on a Friday night just me myself and I nothing to do and nobody else really around. Except Dana.
And he came up to me - to ask me to sign a petition.
Which I took as pretty exciting cause here I was in Madison, the center of radicalism, wow, and I was going to sign a petition!
What was the petition? I asked Dana.
To restore the Tuba section in the University Marching Band. Was his answer.
I signed, and laughed. Far out. Here I am!
Got to play music with Dana a few times, including some of the best times.
