[Dixielandjazz] Who and Where We Are ???

[Gene Hovland]

1.  Gene Hovland
2. Rapid City, South Dakota
3. I began playing the accordion at the age of 6 and trombone at age 11.
My musical career has include playing in numerous concert bands and ensembles.  My love of Dixieland Jazz began in 1958 when I attended a performance by Dukes of Dixieland in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.  After retirement in 2006, I have attended seven Dixieland jazz camps in California and New Orleans.  I also have played Dixieland trombone on five jazz cruises.
4.  I found out about the Dixieland group after attending several Jim Cullum Jazz Band concerts in San Antonia about 1996.  I have learned invaluable information regarding OKOM from this email group.

Dear Digimellers.  Quite some time ago, our dear listmate Don Robertson, in response to at that time the same request of mine I'm about to make again, compiled an Excel spreadsheet of the responses, ie, Who and Where We Are.  The point of the exercise then is the same as now:  lurker or not, it would be extremely enlightening.

So, -- and no, I'm not going to do a spreadsheet, but I will compile an old-fashioned List -- let's hear it:

Lurker or Not (and this exercise includes *EVERYBODY*, ie, even current/frequent posters; accuracy, you know),

1) Who are you?,
2) Where are you?,
3) Musician?, and, for good measure,
4) When did you join this august list?

I'll start.

Mike Logsdon; Salinas, Calif; non-musician (except in my head); joined in approx if not actually May 1995, making me, I think, one of the "charter members", or, at least, I'd like to think of myself as one if not actually.

Now... the rest of you...!

M J (Mike) Logsdon.
