[Dixielandjazz] speaking of sparing moments from busy gig schedules

[David Richoux]

Ever try doing a web search/ image search on Steve Barbone ? He is  
EVERYWHERE!

Amazing...  in the last 30 years I have played in 10 different groups  
all over the world (OKOM and non-OKOM,) been on the radio for over 23  
years, designed all sorts of useful products (as my day job) and I  
have nowhere near the web hits Steve has!

Not that it really matters... but that is what we call "Good PR" or  
"Good Marketing" and that is not a bad thing when you want to make  
money playing old-time jazz ;-)
