Lee Buckalew, 10-08: "SOA was one of the truly life changing times of my life. It helped me grow as a musician and to really begin on a track of live and recorded sound production that I continue to this day.

In June of 2005 I started my own company, Pro Sound Advice. I provide professional sound system design, consultation and training services. I also provide free lance recording engineering services for The Pan Galactic Company, the company which has the recording contract for St. Louis Symphony and others. We were very fortunate this year (2008) to be able to assist with the recording of the U.S. premier, in St. Louis, of John Adams "Dr. Atomic Symphony" and then follow that up this fall with the John Adams "Guide to Strange Places". These will be released together next year (2009) on the Nonesuch record label.

I continue to teach as an adjunct faculty member at Webster University in St. Louis. I teach in the School of Electronic Media and in the Conservatory of Theatre Arts.

I was married in July of 1993 (one week after getting back from SOA) to my beautiful wife Mary. We have four children, LeighAnna (11), Marissa (9), Jesse (7) and Larkyn (almost 2). We live about 35 miles outside of St. Louis, Missouri.

I'd love to hear from folks from any of the years I was fortunate enough to tour with SOA"

Previous: I designed the very first Martin Audio Miniature Line Array sound system in the United States.   I have also continued to dabble in lighting design.  A team of three other gentlemen and myself produced an event for the world premiere of the Ringling Brothers Barnum and Baileys "WIZARD OF OZ ON ICE".  It was called "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" and as a part of this event we lit the Gateway Arch in St. Louis as a rainbow.  It was the first time that it had succesfully been lit.  We won the highest award that the international Illuminating Engineering Society gives for outdoor architectural illumination.  The Paul Waterbury Award.  This was the only time that it has been awarded for a temporary installation. It was awarded to us "with distinction".  This was a very special honor as this award is not given every year but only when work sufficiently worthy of merit is presented and then it is not always given "with distinction". I designed the sound systems and staging layouts for each year of the St. Louis Blues Heritage Festival, a jazz and blues festival second only to the New Orleans festival in size in the U.S." lee.buckalew@prosoundadvice.us

Chasaidy Weddel Cantrell, 2-09: "I graduated with an M.A. in Professional Counseling in August '05 and have been a counselor at Hereford Junior High since. I'm also the campus testing coordinator and §504 coordinator. I'm still married, no kids yet, and I miss and think of my friends from the trip often. Please get in touch!

Previous: I cannot believe it's been so long! I was 14 when we went on the trip and I'll be 30 in August! It's unbelievable that so much time has passed.

After I finished high school, I went to Lubbock Christian and Texas Tech. After 2 years, I transferred to WTAMU and graduated with a degree in education. I've been teaching in Hereford for 8 years; currently I teach 6th grade at Hereford Jr. High and am head of the reading department. I'll graduate with an M.A. in Professional Counseling this August. I'm hoping to go into school counseling while I finish my LPC requirements, then move into private practice. I'm married to the man who has been my best friend since the 5th grade. Kids are definitely in our plans, just not right now. Work and grad. school are taking up most of our time now.

I think about our trip and all the friends I made often. I would love to hear from any and all of you!" cantrellch@hotmail.com

Susan Wright, 6-08: NEW "WOW! So much has happened over the past 18 YEARS! Seems like a lifetime ago! I was just recently married on April 5, 2008! I have a wonderful husband, and 2 awesome step-children, a boy who is 19 and a girl who is 23! My husband is 13 years my senior. With that said, I have also recently found out that I am about to become a step-granma
too! OH WOW a granma at the age of 37! I don't have any biological children yet although we are working on that! :)

I recently received my certification as an EMT for the states of PA and NY. I volunteer with our local ambulance association and work with another as a transporter. I spend much of my time taking care of my Dad who has Multiple Sclerosis.

I am in the middle of earning a bachelor's degree, in what, not quite sure! :) Life keeps happening and things keep changing my schooling
efforts. I have made it thru all the gen-ed stuff, and need to start working on the core stuff for the degree. I am thinking of going into social work so that I can try and work with our nations US Veterans. My Dad is a veteran of the US Army, and being his primary caregiver and him utilizing the VA Health System, it has made me acutely aware of the help some of the veterans need is navigating the system.

Anyways -- enough of me -- would love to hear from any 1990 SOA member and relive the fun. I can be reached at sbartlow4508@hotmail.com. I am hoping to make it to the concert this year and perhaps connect with old friends! See you there!
