[Dixielandjazz] Not OKOM, but sorta - Big Joe's Polka Show on RFD-TV

[David Richoux]

Hi all,

While recovering from a nasty flu-bug I caught in Spain or Portugal I  
was doing some channel surfing and came across this show: Big Joe's  
Polka Show on  RFD-TV. There is an interesting "review" at  
http://www.ink19.com/issues/august2002/screenReviews/ 
bigJoesPolkaHour.html

While it is probably not OKOM for most of us, I could make a direct  
comparison with amateur, part-time and full-time trad jazz bands in  
musical skill levels, song selection, stage presence and audience  
response.

  I also wondered how a similar weekly TV show featuring OKOM bands  
might do!
