[Dixielandjazz] Dixieland Booking

[Larry Walton Entertainment]

Yes I forgot to mention that.  I think the yellow pages are too expensive 
and fairly worthless for bands and when you cancel your ad they change your 
number and in my case unlisted me.  They told me my new number once and 
wouldn't give it to me after that.  I had to wait for my bill to come to 
find out my new number.  I also lost all my other advertising, cards etc. 
because of the number change.  Yellow Page advertising cost me big time for 
about a year after I quit them.  They are quite vindictive when you stop 
advertising with them.

I don't know their current policy but think before advertising with them.
