[Dixielandjazz] Starting a Band

[Robert Thompson]

Hey, Don,

What's the matter with you?  When I go south to play drums with Gremoli, as I do several times a year, I put about 800 miles on the van each round trip.  What are you--sane or something?  ;-)

Best,

Bert Thompson

Hi Pam,

I remember you from the San Diego Adult Jazz Camp, I was on drums and 
new to the camp.  I seem to recall you were doing just fine in the 
session I played with your group.  I'm afraid Napa is a little too far 
from Palm Desert for me to consider auditioning for  your band.  :)
