[Dixielandjazz] JAZZ HAPPENINGS

[Bruce McNichols]

The fun continues

Last week we had a ball (again).  Chicken Joe (tuba) wowed 'em.  Michael Hahim (alto sax) blew us away.  John Meyers once again showed us his prowess on drums.  McN was up to his old tricks, pulling out some classic gems which had the audience rocking.  Bob Leive played piano and trumpet (at the same time).  He blessed us with his Harry James-style rendition of You Made Me Love You.

The place was packed with partiers.
