[Dixielandjazz] News from ATJS.org

[Dan Augustine]

Folks--
     Here's Jim Ivy's rather intemperate (but 
flattering) newsletter of new stuff at 
www.ATJS.org (Jim has taken over the website and 
is doing a great job).
     See my further comments below.

List maker extraordinaire, Dan Augustine, has 
been hard at it. First Dan compiled a 
comprehensive list of traditional jazz web casts 
so no one can complain of not being able to hear 
enough Dixieland. Listening to jazz through your 
computer may seem unusual at first, but, if you 
have fairly good speakers and a fast connection, 
Dan's list will open a new world of jazz 
enjoyment for you.

Dan's latest contribution is an all encompassing 
list of jazz societies. Actually Dan has compiled 
two lists, one of jazz societies in the USA and a 
second of jazz societies around the rest of the 
world! The next time you travel, you can find out 
about all of the trad jazz before you get there. 
Check out the results of his latest labor on the 
"Jazz Links" page. There you will find all three 
of Dan's lists with clickable links.

What's next on Dan's agenda? Rumor has it that he 
is working on an exhaustive list of the very best 
beers to drink while listening to Dixieland jazz!

Another new feature that has been added to 
ATJS.org is the "Jazz Search" page. This is a 
Google search engine that has been optimized to 
search for jazz topics. Try it out the next time 
you have a question about anything to do with 
jazz.

Of course, Dave Stoddard's list of local jazz 
performances is one of the most popular pages at 
ATJS.ORG. Dave's list gives the time and place 
where local bands that will appeal to ATJS 
members will be performing. Check Dave's list 
before you plan your next night on the town!

ATJS.ORG has visitors from many countries around 
the world.  If you are a writer, ATJS.ORG 
welcomes submissions of articles about Dixieland 
Jazz.  If you have an idea for an article, email 
ATJSWebmaster at austin.rr.com.

The Austin Traditional Jazz Society is a 
non-profit organization dedicated to the 
preservation and performance of Traditional 
Dixieland Jazz in Austin and Central Texas
