[Dixielandjazz] Jelly Roll Jazz Band Date Change

[James O'Briant]

To SFO Bay Area OKOM fans ....

A few days ago I sent a message announcing that the Jelly Roll Jazz Band
would be playing at Champa, a restaurant in El Sobrante, CA, on Saturday,
March 8.  For a variety of reasons, this date has been moved to Friday,
March 7.  In addition, the band will also be at Champa on three additional
Fridays, March 28, April 4 and April 11. If the band draws enough patrons to
the restaurant, this may become a long-term weekly gig for the Jelly Roll
Jazz Band.

Champa is located at 3550 San Pablo Dam Road in El Sobrante, CA. You may
telephone Champa at 510-222-1819 for reservations. 

Once again, here's how to get to "Champa" with the least driving on city
streets:

Take I-80 to the San Pablo/El Sobrante area, and look for the El Portal
Drive Exit. If you're on eastbound I-80, it's the first exit after Hilltop
Drive, and if you're westbound it's the first exit after San Pablo Dam Road.
Take the El Portal Exit, and then turn East (away from the Bay) on El Portal
Drive. Go about 0.2 mile to the "T" intersection, then turn right on San
Pablo Dam Road for about 0.1 mile. Turn left into the "El Sobrante Plaza"
strip mall. "Champa" is in units H & J of the mall just to the right of the
center driveway where you enter. I'm told that it's next to "The Cellar," a
well- known wine and spirits retailer.

We look forward to seeing you on March 7, and then again on March 28 and
April 4 & 11, so that we have a huge turnout and the restaurant will be
eager to book the Jelly Roll Jazz Band on a long-term basis.
