[Dixielandjazz] Sacramento Jazz Jubilee

[Scott Anthony]

Please don't think I was complaining about the noise. Yes, I agree that it 
is all part of the Jubilee atmosphere. I was just amused that some list 
members thought street noise was some sort of affront to their musical 
sensibilities and had to complain to authorities about it and offered up the 
Jubilee experience as a contrast.
