Sure does sound interesting!
James Dapogny's band is very exciting; so far, I've only heard Schumm
on You Tube, but he sounded great.
Oh, how I wish I could be there!  Were I in the States, I'd have
travelled (the previous Tuesday I returned from a one day traditional
jazz festival in Poland - Poznan Old Jazz Festival; in Polish -
tranlsated - it was The Second Meeting of Traditionalists).
Cheers
