[Dixielandjazz] realistic future for Dixieland jazz

[Elazar Brandt]

Yeah, Bill, but wait 'til we run out of gas!

But it's not the same thing. The horse and buggy is not an art form. There is
nothing inherently archaic or impractical about Dixieland music, except maybe
that it's played by larger bands with live instruments instead of one or two
idiots with synthesizers and too many megawatts of amplification at their
disposal, and you have to know how to play.
