I saw Maynard twice in two consecutive years in Augusta, GA - probably '96
and '97 (or '95 and '96).  At one of the shows, Maynard set up a table at
the front of the stage following the show and signed autographs for nearly
an hour.  He didn't even take a break after the show - as soon as it was
over, even though he was exhausted and still sweating heavily, he took time
to sign headshots, meet fans, and have a few inspiring conversations with
aspiring trumpet players.  I'll always remember that.
