Went to Dizzy’s last night because my teacher was performing with the Mesa College Jazz Band. It was so fun because I knew almost 3/4 of the people there, it was like a party and not a concert. There's a song they were performing called the "louis shuffle" (not the St. Louis Shuffle) and they sounded horrible. You could see Professor Romeo just gritting his teeth and looking back at the kids behind him. After the song, when the audience began to applaud, he put his hands out to shush us, then he said, "That song didn't deserve any applause. That was, what we like to call in the business, the equivalent of a train wreck."
*lots of laughter*
"so we're going to do it all over again." They did the song ALL over again. It was fun... wish other peeps could have been there. I ended up sitting next to Zig, the guy in my speech and Jazz class...he talks a lot and knows a lot about jazz so it makes me feel very comfortable.
