Dave hails from Takoma Park, Maryland.  He holds a Ph.D. in Geology from the University of Utah and is an Assistant Director at Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio.  Doctor Dave has been plugging away at the trumpet for over 30 years now.  While pursuing undergraduate degrees in Music and Geology, Dave joined the marching band at the College of William and Mary.  It seemed natural enough.  But that's where he found the love of his life Kristy, who is also an accomplished trumpet player (in fact, she's a third generation trumpet player!).  Following a tour through community bands in Salt Lake City, Dave and Kristy made the move to the Alamo City in 1990.  A gig here and a German band there, and Dave became one of the charter members of the Lamplighters in 1994.  Dave and Kristy are now the proud parents of Austin, Michelle, and James, who share their parent's love of music.  Someday maybe they'll be playing their great great grandpa's horn, as a fourth generation begins to find its chops!  With these genes, the result is sure to be spectacular!

Don hails from historic Culpeper, VA (a town named after one of the infamous absentee governors of the Virginia colonies, Lord Culpeper, who won the governorship from King George in a poler game....oh, and George Washington slept there, too!).  Don received his B.S. in commerce from the University of Virginia and an M. A. in counseling from Ball State University.  He spent 24 years in the Air Force as an electronic warefare officer (EWO) with flying tours as a B-52 EWO and backseater in the F-4C and F-4G Wild Weasel fighter aircraft, which included a Viet Nam combat tour during the Linebacker 2 operation in 1972.  Don retired as a lieutenant colonel and ran a carpet cleaning franchise for 8 years.  He now is in new product sales and motivational speaking.  By now you've noticed a decided lack of musical training in Don's background -- cause it's not there!  Pretty much got it the hard way on his own (well, we did have to teach him to blow into the little end of his horn...)  Don has played in a number of concert and jazz bands in Ft Walton Beach, FL, and here in San Antonio, TX.  He doubles on the didjeridoo and is a practicing Reiki Master and sound resonance therapist.  Guess he hasn't decided yet what he wants to do when he grows up --  we're just glad he keeps putting air through his horn!
