Last nite while playing our bi-weekly gig at a prestigious hotel, an
American lady came up and asked for a tune by Chris Cross, the singer.
There we are playing Dixieland, dressed in (the hotel requires this)
colourful vests.  The band went ape when she left!!  They seem to think
Americans should know what a jazz band is.  How badly mistaken they are.
