[Dixielandjazz] Great CT Jazz Festival

[Robert S. Ringwald]

Listmates,

I am writing this as I am sitting on a train bound for Penn station in NYC. 
I had a great time this last weekend, performing with the Blue Street Jazz 
Band at the Great CT Jazz Festival in Moodus, CT.

While the accommodations were a bit primitive (Have you ever been to Boy 
Scout camp?) the attitude and friendliness  (Is there such a word?) of the 
volunteers more than made up for any inconvenience.

All of the bands were good.  I especially liked the Wolverines and a Jug 
Band, Washboard Slim and the Blue Light Jug Band.

I also met several DJML Listmates, a few whom I have met before, and some I 
haven't.

What a nice little festival.  They have had their problems in the past but 
are doing a good job of fixing things and are coming back very nicely.  Keep 
up the good work.

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."
