[Dixielandjazz] Music at the ballpark

The White Sox don't have jazz at the ballpark, but they have the next best
thing (but only for day games this year) with organist Nancy Faust whose
choice of music to match opposing players' names, quirks, etc. is inspired
to say the least.  (Did I mention she's a friend of mine?)

Lucky Cubs fans -- no pennant, but good music.  About once a year the 
Colorado Rockies splurge on a jazz band to play outside Coors Field; this 
year it'll be June 10th.  Clarinettist Vern Baumer and drummer Bill Roberts 
are the two principals.

I don't think the Rockies have so much as an organist this year; at opening 
day, all the "music" was ugly, too loud, and canned.
