Last Session; March 23:

The featured band for March was Clint Baker's Cafe Borrone All-Stars. They brought their brand of swinging Traditional Jazz to our last meeting at the Palo Alto Elk's. We had a large, appreciative crowd for an Easter Sunday and Clint Baker did not dissapoint them. This was our last session at the Elk's, the wreckers ball is due soon.

Dick Williams led the jammers for another outstanding performance.

The jammers keep getting better all the time. Getting on the stage with the South Bay Jammers has become a prestigious accomplishment.

Next Session, April 27:

The guest band for April will be Devil Mountain Jazz Band. This is one of the most pouplar bands to play for South Bay and always draws a large crowd. This band is a favorite at festivals. They are the host band for the traditional jazz festival at Cline Cellers every July. Come early and bring your dancing shoes.

See you there.

We encourage members to bring snacks to share. You don't have to wait for a birthday or other occasion.
