[Dixielandjazz] Strange Gigs

[patcooke77 at yahoo.com]

This is a second hand story....I was not there, but a reed player told me he was playing in a club in underground Atlanta.  One of the things they did was play the Saints, and march around the place, including walking along the bar.  Since this was underground, there were some exposed pipes overhead from the units above.  One of the players left his instrument on the stand, and when he got up on the bar, decided to swing from one of the overhead pipes.  The pipe broke and sewerage spilled all over the bar and its patrons....also the reed player.

There was a hilarious gig story here a few years back from the band leader in 
Atlanta that had a band in the underground there.  Had something to do with a 
Japanese guy. Anyone remember that? Anyone know how to get in touch with that 
bandleader so he can re-post it?  Was one of the best ever.
