[Dixielandjazz] Support live jazz!

[Marek Boym]

Just back from another Eli and the Chocolate Factory show in Tel-Aviv.
To my surprise, the small place - Hoodna - was very crowded.  The
repertoire was mostly standards, but also a rather obscure Ellington tune
"Krum Elbow Blues" and, with no sopranos or clarinets in sight, "Si Tu Vois
Ma Mere" (discussed on the list not long ago) and "Pee Wee's Blues."  Jess
Koren soloed on both on tenor; the trumpeter Eli Preminger sat out on "Si
Tu Vois".
In all, an over an hour show, enthusiastically received by the small, and
mostly young, audience.  As usual, yours truly must have been the oldest
there, raising the average age,
Cover was NIS 40 (about US$ 11), and well worth it!  They have good beer
there, too - I had Shapiro (a Jerusalem brewery)  Jack's Winter Ale, 8.5%
abv, brewed with Jack Daniels barrel shavings.
Cheers
