[Dixielandjazz] 2012 Emperor .....Sacramento Jazz??? Jubilee

Jack Vincken climax at idirect.com
Thu Jun 2 06:22:51 PDT 2011


Congratulations to Bob Ringwald being named Emperor to the 2012 Jubilee. For 
all the work Bob
has done for the event, this couldn't be a nicer reward.
For all the years we have played the Jubilee, we have seen all the past 
Emperors on the stage during
the parade and Bob fits in perfectly with the past super talented Emperors.
All the best Bob from your friends in the Climax Jazz Band, Toronto, Canada.
Jack Vincken
