Listmates, pardon the black humor here.

I sent the message from our Listmate in Israel, regarding the Dr. Jazz Trio 
and people dancing, to a friend & former DJML Listmate, Mad Dawg.  Below is 
his response.

Well with a question like that he should come to the US and attend a
festival like Kalispell. Ha  Playing in the streets in that country can
be a risky business, especially if you are where the people are, like a
pizza parlor like the one blown up or a bus stop where people are
waiting. They might think your round banjo is a disguised land mine.

Songs to avoid over there.

1. I'm Sitting on Top of the Bus

2. Bill Bailey You Ain't NEVER Comin' Home.

3. Molten Metal Swing

4. I Left My Heart (and other bodily parts) in Telive.

5. Hello Central, give me 911

6. I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream for the Medics.

7. St. Joseph Infirmary Blues

8. When the Saints go Marching In-early.

9. I'll Never Get Out of This World Alive (Jerry Lee Lewis version)

10.The Prisoner Song (If I had the wings of an angel)

And the least popular song, "Holding the Sack" by Hal Smith and his
Roadrunners.

You get the idea I am sure.
