[Dixielandjazz] Portland Dixieland friendly Venues

[tcashwigg at aol.com]

Hi Chris:

Unfortunately I think I delete the email i just received about it today 
form the Portland Jazz Festival,  it was from their website which I 
could not Forward to DJML.   But it was specifically talking about 
those three clubs and the Transplanted New Orleans Musicians that are 
performing there and there is going to be a Television broadcast in 
APRIL I THINK IT SAID.

If you don't find specific Dixieland go see the club owners and talk 
them into it while they are in the New Orleans Mood if nothing more 
than to add another couple nights a month for local Dixieland bands and 
build up the market.  :))   Worth a shot.

Try

    or google search for them and you should find all the details,

Cheers,

Tom Wiggins

    The subject of this message was quite a surprise to me. As a 
Portland  resident
for the past three years,it's been my experience that there's  rarely 
any
traditional jazz played here. So I thought I'd better take a  look at 
the
websites for these clubs mentioned, in case I was missing  something:

  www.jimmymaks.com
  www.thebluemonk.com

  I couldn't find anything about the Bigfoot Lounge.

   In looking at the March calendars for both the clubs mentioned above, 
I
didn't see anything remotely resembling traditional or dixieland, not  
even
anything remotely close to that. Not even swing/mainstream. Most  if 
not all
seems to be either what is now referred to as "modern" jazz,  or rhythm 
and
blues. And I didn't see any New Orleans artists.

  Huh?? Did I miss something?
