"Now onto my soapbox:
Since "trad" jazz seeks to preserve at least some of the roots of the genre, it would seem to me that a beginner should be very aware that the earlier bands usually played for private parties (which meant dances) and public dances, Rarely for sit-down concerts.... etc" 



Phil,

Well said! I have incorporated your comments into my personal folder of things to keep in mind when you run a band.
