[Dixielandjazz] Fwd: Trombone Portland

[tcashwigg at aol.com]

He better be a quick learner, I drove by there today and there was 
aline of guys with trombones three block long waiting to audition :))   
Since it was raining cats and dogs I just bought a ticket for the show 
and went on in.  :))

Wow those girls are really swingers!!  the band on the other hand was 
having a hard time reading the charts :))

Ah but Burlesque ain't what it usta be  except for the Girls  that part 
never changes much thankfully, but wow what a bunch of amateur 
musicians especially for OKOM.

Now I did do a good deed however. I gave them Jelly Roll Ringwald's 
number and recommended him for the new musical director position and 
piano player, and I could swear the first guy in line for the Bone 
position audition was ole Slushpump Williams and he had a pair of 
binoculars duct taped to his horn too.   You know he has a hard time 
with some of those charts because of his long arms and the slide and 
all that.  Now if they can get Bill Gunter on the bill as the MC 
Comedian Washboardist then the joint might have a future for a Great 
S.F. OKOM Revival

Cheers, & Loving Leers

Tom  Batta Boom  and we'll have a real good time  Wiggins

P.S. Lotta Luv sends her best regards to all.

opening you
mentioned in SF...

Maybe some unemployed one in Portland, Oregon can help him. :))

Looks like a Challenge, a guy who plays a guitar with his ear, what
pray tell is he going to work the Slide with ?
Cheers,
