[Dixielandjazz] Local fund-raiser

[Don Gumpert]

Gosh, I watched it last night in Ft. Walton Beach, Florida but did not know
names of all the performers!  It will be back on in our area on Saturday
evening and I'll make a note to record it.  It was excellent but, some of
the performers seem to be getting older - strange that they should age while
we still look the same as we did 30 years ago...
Tuesday night we get "Sinatra: The Classic Duets" and other classic
performances.  I love PBS fundraisers!
