[Dixielandjazz] tcash: Name Bands

[tcashwigg at aol.com]

Absolutely correct Ed, we share the same opinion,  nice fellas, and all 
but just not anything I would pay money to go hear very often, even the 
paltry $2.50 at Preservation Hall,  I would rather keep walking and 
drop a five in the bucket by the door if they had one there, :))


It is my opinion that it is the DUTY of The Preservation Hall Society 
to recruit and keep the best players in Nawlins in that band and pay 
them a decent wage to tour and represent Nawlins and the Music.   There 
are better players on the streets playing for change than they keep in 
that band.


Cheers,

Tom Wiggins

    About Preservation Band, the last two times in Nawlins, I felt that 
the only
reason to hear and see the group was to listen to a few OLD TIMERS play 
OKOM,
not to mention the road group. I know that they have a reputation to 
keep up,
but the drive that once was, is lacking. Not a complaint,only an 
observation.

The fact that they mostly are older than I and can play an instrument 
is
overwhelming.

Just a comment.
