[Dixielandjazz] Suggestions for a 4th of July Concert?

[Gluetje1 at aol.com]

Have fun enjoying the trad jazz gigging!  In addiiton to the songs  
suggested earlier:  Battle Hymn, America the Beautiful, God Bless America  all can 
be "jazzed".  Songs that simply reflect mid-summer such as Ice  Cream, 
Struttin' with Some Barbeque.  Swinging some marches.
 
Check out David Littlefield's Fake Book.

Hey  folks,
I have very much enjoyed reading the thoughts expressed on this  list. 
Thank you.
I am new to Traditional Jazz (more of a "classical guy",  by training), but 
I am trying to get a 
trad band up, and gigging (don't  worry, the other guys know what they're 
doing!).  I have almost secured a  4th of July gig, but am not sure what 
tunes would work well for that setting  (we would be playing just before the 
fireworks).  Anybody played one of  these type gigs?
I will also need to locate the fake sheets for any of the  non-traditional 
trad tunes.  ;-)
Any thoughts would be  appreciated!
Regards,
Larry
