[Dixielandjazz] Political Statements On DJML, NOT!

[tcashwigg at aol.com]

Well Dan me friend:

  Let's keep this one just on dixieland jazz (which obviously does not 
include personal and ad hominem arguments between members). 

I have been here a few years now and it ain't been that yet :))

as I slip off to another site humming What a Wonderful World :))  just 
to keep it musical and close to Jazz :))

What the Hell is there left to say about Dixieland Jazz that has not 
already been said on this list, with deep respect to everyones narrow 
or broadminded minded viewpoints of it individually?    Tis the nature 
of mankind and the nature of musicians especially to disagree with 
anyone and anything being the malcontents that most of us are in real 
life.

And like Dave said it's like being in a bar and overhearing the 
discussions up and down it, sort of like in CHEERS, and joining in 
wherever you want to let your opinion be heard, hopefully without 
getting a beer flung in your face and totally wasted, and yet ending up 
at the closing time buying each other a final final on the way out the 
door.

Ole Tom off to join the Temperance league again :))

    What Bob said: "DJML is a Jazz specific Mail List." The list is 
deliberately focused on 'dixieland' (and other types of early) jazz, 
and the posting of any other types of messages goes against the spirit 
and the letter of the list. I sure don't want to wade through a bunch 
of political or other crap trying to find something about jazz, and i'm 
sure 99% of the members of this list feel the same way. We're music 
lovers and musicians, not politicians nor marketing executives (etc.), 
and i'm not interested in anyone's views on anything but jazz. There 
are plenty of other lists where you can do that. Let's keep this one 
just on dixieland jazz (which obviously does not include personal and 
ad hominem arguments between members).
