[Dixielandjazz] Jazz competition

[tcashwigg at aol.com]

Kind of like USA's  Baseball "World Series" where no teams form other 
countries are invited to compete:))

Well except Canada, and didn't we annex them some time ago :))

What's in a name anyway ??

Tom Wiggins

Fearless shameless leader of the World's Next Greatest Jazz Band that 
plays Blues, Zydeco, Gospel, Soul, Funk, R&B, Country and anything else 
they want to hear and are willing to pay WELL for.   I also always vote 
for the Audience to WIN.   I have always BEEN MORE INTERESTED IN BEING 
IN FRONT OF THE WORLD'S BEST Paying  AUDIENCES THAN A SMALL CROWD OF 
MUSICIANS ON THE GUEST LIST :))


Musical content:   "Pissing in the Wind"  Utah U. Phillips

   This "incident" proves that a competition is not such a good Idea.
