John Kendrick's Maple Sugar Jazz Band is scheduled to appear on

A cameo appearance featuring one of the male stars from the
Soprano TV series will show the Maple Sugar Jazz Band
playing at the recent Boston 2005 Marathon Pasta Party at
Bostonís City Hall Plaza.

The brief skit has the Soprano's character making an
offer you can't refuse, to bandleader Kendrick to play
the tune New York, New York,  to kid the Boston Red
Sox fans who were gathered at the pasta party.

The popular annual pasta party was hosted for runners to fortify themselves
for the April 18th 26 mile marathon.  The band played Dixieland
tunes  to entertain the 10,000 diners who stood  for hours in long lines to
enter the huge white dining tent.

The Maple Sugar Jazz Band, made up of retired executives
from marketing, education and engineering has been selected to
play  April 23 at Boston's Fleet Center for the Boston Celtics Basketball
playoff series.
