[Dixielandjazz] Thanks to everyone's suggestions on finding musicians.

[Michael Gimino]

Well I followed everyone's suggestions and while I didn't get to my goal, I can definitely sense I am close and will not be a long time before I do. I chatted with a few PA dixielanders, part time or full, and tried to get word of performances I was able to attend, which I will be informed if they will, so that is a big plus. I put up an ad on craigslist.org, and looking to do a few other things like print those business cards.

I want to give a special thank you to Stephen Barbone. I called Pete, and we had a nice chat, and he was really happy to talk to me. He is gonna probably send me some more old recordings, and most likely definitely refer me to other musicians when given the chance. I hope some day to meet with him in person, and even possibly play with him. Swell guy

I'll let everyone know how I come along (if you care), the swinging teenage dixieland drummer, in the coming months if anything big happens. Thanks again

Michael
