Thanks from me for expanding what my ears heard today.  I very much  
enjoyed hearing the freshness, fun, and skill of the MySpace audios of National  
Junk Band.

One  suggestion for current 2-Beat Oz Tuba driven jazz would actually  
be  a "jug/skiffle/comedy" band that is more tuba driven than most jazz   
bands! I am talking about Mic Conway's National Junk Band (with   
Carolyn Johns on tuba.)
http://www.nationaljunkband.com/junkband.html  or
http://www.myspace.com/nationaljunkbandand  - they are hot and fun!  A  
history that goes back to the 1970's with Captain Matchbook  Whoopee   
Band and a connection to the mysterious Kransky  Sisters.

If there ever was a current Australian band to bring over  to  
Sacramento Jazz Festival, they would be my choice - others may  argue,  
go ahead!
1950s Yerba Buena is fine, been playing that for  30 years, but if we  
are going to continue the tradition there has to  be some new inclusion!
