[Dixielandjazz] Trad & Swing in North Carolina ????

[David Richoux]

I was in the High Hampton area of NC (south, very close to the border  
of South Carolina) a few weeks ago and noticed a poster for a trad  
jazz festival - I did not check the dates but it would have been late  
August or early September, probably in the town of Highlands or nearby.

Sorry not to have any more details - as I recall the poster there  
might have been 4 or more bands playing.
