Ted Shafer's Jelly Roll Jazz Band will play at LaBeau's Louisiana
Kitchen, 436 Ferry Street, Martinez, CA, on Saturday, April 29, from 7
PM to 10 PM.  The normal personnel (subject to change due to individual
schedule conflicts) are:

	Earl Scheelar, Cornet
	Pete Main, Clarinet
	Glenn Calkins, Trombone
	Jim O'Briant, Tuba
	Ted Shafer, Banjo & Leader
	Sharon Swenson, Piano

As this is a small venue, reservations are recommended; call
925-229-9323.

The bad news is that the present owners of La Beau's have sold the
restaurant, and this Saturday, April 29, will be the Jelly Roll Jazz
Band's last regular Saturday night appearance there.

The good news is that the present owners of La Beau's will soon be
opening a floating restaurant and lounge, to be moored at the Martinez
Marina.  Latest word is that the lounge will be open before Memorial
Day, with the restaurant to follow as quickly as construction allows.
Once the Lounge is open, the Jelly Roll Jazz Band is slated to resume
their regular Saturday Night appearances in the new location.  We'll
keep you all posted....
