[Dixielandjazz] Montreal Jazz Festival

[Stephen G Barbone]

Hey Steve (Heist)

I'm with you. The below 11 bands/performers added to those already  
listed by Marek and Dave,  are certainly MKOM and probably fit the  
lose definition of OKOM for most of us.

IMO, It shapes up as a great jazz festival considering all the other  
performers who appear there and those listed below, who except for the  
"BIG" stars, appear multiple times on multiple days.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
