The "Blue Note" is the (Redondo Beach) South Bay New Orleans Jazz Club's monthly mailer. We are in the process of building a site so that you will be able to access it. In the meantime, I've cobbled up excerpts from the September '10 issue - just out. I'm sorry about the quality, but it's the best I can do with my limited PC skills.
In the meantime, don't forget to rush to Amazon.com/books to get your copy of my book, "The World in a Jug" - 'The Lore of New Orleans and Dixieland Jazz': Bob b

from the PRESIDENT:
Make ‘em Aware
There has been many articles written concerning the lack of young people playing Dixieland jazz (OKOM). There is even a shortageof that same group who attend festivals and concerts.If our kind of music is tosurvive, we all need to be ambassadors and make theyounger generation aware of the music.
In past articles, I have mentioned “Bring a Friend.”Not only bring an adult, but bring a teenager or older to make them aware of thetraditional jazz. Unfortunately, this music is not heard by youngpeople. Also mention our sessions to your swing dancer friends.There is a strong movement to swing dancing these days. These dancers would love our kind of music. The Jazz club is a greatvenue for music and dancing.
Besidesbeing an ambassador for the music, keep your ears andeyes peeled for young talent.Last year I wrote about “passing the torch” and about the scholarships that SBNOJC have given tostudents interested in perpetuating trad jazz. We wantto continue this practice. If you know a person that might fit our scholarship requirements make sure you contactone of the Boardof Directors or email me at goldperson51 at yahoo.com.
We are always on the lookout for worthy students that are interested inDixieland Jazz.
Let’s keep jazz alive.
