[Dixielandjazz] Maynard Ferguson

[Dave Hanson]

Steve,

That's an easy one.....his agent knows the band will be in town, or close to it anyway, and offers a deal they can't refuse. We used to call it block booking !

Maybe contact one of the schools and find out who booked them !

I'm surprised you would even ask !

  Speaking about Maynard, how does he get all his High School/College Gigs?
  Who's his booking agent?

  His Oct/Nov schedule shows these schools among his other tour dates.

  Cheers,
  Steve
