List mates:

Received this from Conrad Janis. I would love to be there, but am  
unable to attend. Some of you in the Los Angeles area may wish to do  
so. If you want to RSVP Conrad Janis directly, write me off list and I  
will give you his e-mail address and/or phone number. This will, no  
doubt, be a superb tribute to a wonderful man and the band will be  
superb. The phone number at the venue to RSVP is in the message below.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone

New Orleans Farewell to Friend and Band Member  Legendary Sheldon Keller

Some of you knew Sheldon Keller, and those of you who didn't SHOULD  
HAVE. He is a 'Mench', a Pickle, a funny man whose humor rose out of  
innocence, a friend in Need, and a friend in Deed. He won awards, Oh.  
such awards for his writing and producing. He made you cry from both  
his outstanding jokes, and made you sigh for those you couldn't get  
him to stop repeating. He seldom remembered a tune to the end of a  
song, but he lives, and will continue to do so in our hearts and in  
that of all the millions of people his sweet hand touched. SO, FRIENDS  
OF SHELDON, FANS OF SHELDON, FANS OF CONRAD JANIS AND THE BEVERLY  
HILLS UNLISTED JAZZ BAND, BE AVISED, AND PLEASE R.S.V.P. TO THIS  
NOTICE THAT ON MONDAY THE 22ND OF SEPTEMBER, WE WILL BE PLAYING AT  
'CAFE ROMA' AT 8:30 ON WITH LOTS OF DIXIELAND AND SWING, GOSPEL AND  
BLUES TO HELP GOD PLACE SHELDON IN A REALLY GOOD BAND SO HE CAN CHARM  
THE ANGELS AS HE DID US.

The phone number is: 310-274-7834 at Cafe Roma..  The lovely people of  
Cafe Roma have allowed us the space to play and share our music, our  
love, and LAISSER LES BONS TEMPS ROULEZ, cause this will be a tribute  
to Sheldon and the years he brought so much fun and frolic to us all.  
Do call to confirm and tell a friend of Sheldon's. Phone or E-Mail us.  
God's Blessings, Conrad, Maria and the furry little critters.
