[Dixielandjazz] Sacramento Music Festival Line-up

[Patrick Skiffington]

Yes, the STJS has lost its way, sold its soul, and gone against its own
charter... This is not the "40th annual" event. It is a SECOND annual event
of the new moniker and ethos.
But this is not news.

On a lighter note, Traditional Jazz will re-emerge in Sacramento at the
*new* festival on Labor Day Weekend

THIS is news! Make your plans now!
