Sometimes they work, sometimes, not. Here’s one that has become a favorite for our fans at our concerts….The Pink Panther: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdP59IFMx0s" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?<wbr>v=XdP59IFMx0s</a> The trumpeter is our new sub (from Croatia) who was filling in for our regular trumpeter that nite.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We mix that type of songs with standards from the Dixie stable, and it adds a nice blend for our audiences that are not too particularly into jazz as such. An easily recognized tune like the Pink Panther “draws in” the unwashed & makes them converts! They usually all go “ooohh” just after hearing the ding of the cymbal & the da-da-dada, something that doesn’t necessarily happen with Weary Blues, or That’s a Plenty! :><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The video was taken at a private home that opens its doors once a week to a concert + a jam session afterward.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">They have an all-inclusive buffet & drinks package at the door for the event.
