Hi Jude,
I'll be there with my Swing Band doing the Krupa / Goodman Centenary 
tribute with James Evans, John Wurr, Martin Litton and Heather Birt. I 
was planning to travel today and camp (bona)! But in view or the forcast 
I'm going to have to get up at the crack of dawn and hit the road. We 
are on at noon in the marquee. Come and say hello if you are about.

BTW - another beef. In all the Jackson hysteria, BBC Five kept going 
over to Glastonbury, where they have again spent thousands of pounds of 
tax peyers money sending correspondants to cover this 'pop' festival. I 
wonder how much Aunty Beeb has spent covering Upton, which is the 
biggest traditional jazz festival in the UK?
