[Dixielandjazz] Eldorado Syncopators Jazz Band in Napa May 14th

[tcashwigg at aol.com]

No not the best choice of words to attract any interested listeners at 
all.

Perhaps they meant to say "providing quality out -of- date music to 
un-interested listeners for 25 years,"  kind of like being at the wrong 
place at the right time with the right stuff or at the right place at 
the wrong time with the right or  wrong stuff, :))

Whatever they could use a bit of PR shape up  :))

I read that post and simply deleted it, like many will do to this one 
no doubt. :))

Not because it might not be a good event or that the band might not be 
of good quality, it just said NOTHING that would motivate me to plan on 
making a trip up there to see them, why because in the event it was not 
a good band and or the food and atmosphere was not good I would be 
upset with myself for wasting my time and giving up a Sunday that I 
might have found something better to do closer to home.

Put some pizzazz in those press releases and advertisements guys, you 
are competing with EVERYTHING under the sun to get folks out and about 
with their leisure hours  not to mention the price of Gasoline.



Cheers,

Tom  Wiggins
