I first noticed a<br>
problem on 5 March when I a post sent to djml (that I have attached below)<br>
didn't pop up in my own inbox as it should. I looked at the djml archives &<br>
saw it was there, though. Then, over the next few days there were no other<br>
posts from djml, nor were there any in the archives. That's when I alerted<br>
Bob Ringwald asking if there was a problem.<br>
<br>
Our list may not be as active as it was a few years ago, but then we often<br>
had some contentious arguments going on then that added to the quantity but<br>
not the quality of the posts on the list. It's a great list, and many thanks<br>
to those that keep it running for us!<br>
<br>
I have noticed that my djml posts no longer go into my djml box, but remain<br>
in my general inbox. That must be due to whatever was done at HQ! I will<br>
make a new ruling for that. Also, I noticed we had a few posts come through<br>
in HTML, not plain text. Is that something new for the list?<br>
<br>
Anyway, for those that didn't have a look at a recent video of our band here<br>
in Madrid last week, the link is below. I love it mainly because of the<br>
interreaction between the pianist & trumpeter, which is all about playing<br>
Jazz. It gets a tad bit modern, but that's ok, too. We can still honk in<br>
the classic style, also.<br>

Subject: company gig<br>
<br>
Since 2008 are gigs for company functions has taken a big drop, but<br>
fortunately they are slowly coming back. A few months ago Ernst & Young<br>
took us up to Barcelona for a company gig, and last night we played for an<br>
Orthodontist Convention in Madrid.<br>
<br>
Have a look at a video I shot while the band was playing a rather modern<br>
version of "Caravan". The trumpeter is a young Russian who often<br>
substitutes for our regular trumpeter. Here he has a bit of a "talk" with<br>
the pianist at the end of his solo which (you can see in the video) he<br>
enjoyed greatly. It's really fun when those sort of moments happen in a<br>
band.<br>
<br>
I was taking the video, so all you can see of me is my horn on the stand &<br>
mutes on the floor! We're dressed in our "function" clothes, which I guess<br>
in the U.S. would be frowned on as being corny. In Spain, we always get<br>
compliments about the colorful vests (which were a gift from J & B Whiskey),<br>
as there are no misunderstood undercurrents here about such<br>
dress....fortunately.<br>
<br>
