[Dixielandjazz] Seeking Information on "Saloon"

[Beth Schweitzer]

Hi Ginny,

Glad you're coming to the party but I just wanted to be sure you mean
the 12th - NOT this coming Sunday (the 5th)! We're flying Noel Kaletsky
in to play with the Rivermen - it should be a great one.

See you then,
Beth

Thanks, Jim, Janie, Beth, and Steve. Making progress with this query. 
Armed with info on the music & lyrics I found the lyrics also on lyrics 
playground, giving a copyright of 1919. There was also a note that
"Ehret" 
mentioned in the lyrics was the top-selling beer at the turn of the
century, 
produced by German immigrant, George Ehret. The elder Busch's might want
to 
challenge that claim.
 
Beth, we do plan to be at St. Louis Jazz Club Christmas Party this
coming 
Sunday as well as Banjo Club Christmas Party tomorrow night. Plus play 
three small private gigs and do a rehearsal with my kids banjo band so
they 
can play for the Children's Program at the church where they rehearse --
also 
this week-end. Whew!
Ginny
