[Dixielandjazz] Re: American Idol musicians...not OKOM, but...

Ever wonder what might happen to OKOM if the media gave it the 
attention American Idol is getting,  hummm they started it with Ken 
Burns Series, and it kick started things for us , some of us got on the 
Train and others watched the train leave the stations and just waved 
goodbye as OKOM left their town. :))   Or worse yet were waiting at the 
Bus Depot when the Train left.  :))

We gets from this life what we puts into it me thinks.



Cheers,

Tom

   Dear Hal,
You said: > I have no feeling one way or the other about American Idol. 
 I
know I'm not into that kind of music, so I just don't bother to watch.<

Which also applies to me. Never have, nor would, watch it.
Unfortunately, however hard you try, it is almost impossible to 
completely
avoid the 'Idol' media hype in the mainstream newspapers (news, pics and
articles), magazines, TV news and television promos.
It is big $$$$s here.
Kind regards,
Bill.
PS: I don't listen to radio, so miss that source.
