NAME – Ray Coulson

When Started Playing – Seriously in 1999

When Joined Denton Brass - 2004

Previous Bands - Ashtonian Brass, Hollingworth, Boarshurst Youth Band (oldest member !)

Best moment in Banding - winning a 4th section prize on Whit Friday despite torrential rain.

Worst moment in Banding - when a fellow band member died in a motor bike accident.

Future hopes and wishes - that more bands do not meet the fate of two of my previous bands and cease to exist.  To carry on enjoying playing,
