Just to put Things into PROPER PERSPECTIVE HERE FOLKS,

THE FAIR IS  IN NEVADA COUNTY  which is just down the road a piece form 
the sign that says
"Resume Speed"  So our friends are not exactly going to show up in the 
Social Column of the local newspaper without the credentials of the 
good Doctor's in the group, as the regular musicians no doubt do not 
warrant enough prestige to be in the honorable mention column.

And I certainly do not mean to personally demeanor any member of this 
group, or to infer that they are "NOT" COMPETENT JAZZ PLAYERS and 
without a few loyal fans fROm the STJS.  But we are talking Nevada 
County Fair here folks, held in Grass Valley, Ca,  over a five day run 
and claims to have had 106,670 attendance ( paid and free)   and our 
friends are  booked for the Final Sunday of the Fair.

Is this a BIG DEAL, NO, BUT IS IT IMPORTANT, YES IT IS, BECAUSE IT IS 
YET ANOTHER GIG FOR AN OKOM BAND, which are rapidly disappearing even 
in this field of entertainment.   Ms. Johnson's apple Pie is now 
considered to be more important than the Band that is playing, or the 
prettiest Goat or Cow that will be sold to the highest restaurant 
bidder to keep the  4H club going.

I f anyone wants to see the rest of the fair entertainment schedule and 
activities check them out at :

Bottom line is we all need to go find other events that attract a lot 
more people, and get OKOm bands on the bill if we are to keep it alive 
and a viable entity for employment for jazz musicians of any caliber. 
:))

I will however be having a Brain SENIOR MOBILE CHAIR  clinic and a 
Seminar on the values of Geritol and Viagra for folks over 60 at the 
same time as the Good Doctors will be performing at the Fair.   TO 
SUPPLEMENT MY MEAGER MUSICIANS RETIREMENT INCOME. :))

CHEERS

  Dr. Tom Wiggins   ( hope the new title will get me more money and 
respect)
