[Dixielandjazz] Rebirth Brass Band

[Robert S. Ringwald]

Listmates,

I am at the Pensacola Jazz Fest with The Boondockers.  Just heard the 
Rebirth Brass Band from New Orleans.  All I can say is WOW!  I have never 
heard anything like it before.

It is a New Orleans Street Band but playing really hot tunes to a rock beat. 
The tpt & tuba players must have iron chops.  The band had the crowd on 
their feet, dancing, waving handkerchiefs & umbrellas.

It is kinda sorta like Rock music, so, a few tunes are about as much as I 
can take.  But of course, it is all done with traditional brass band 
instruments, not amplified, guitars with distortion  boxes so it is more 
enjoyable for me.

The ones that learn by reading.
The few who learn by observation.
The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for
themselves."
