[Tradjazz] Galvanized Jazz Band Alert!

[VIGORJAZZ at aol.com]

Hi GJB Fans,

Thank you!

Our CD Release Party at the Beachhead on Thursday, Nov 29th was a smashing 
success!   Thank you so much for being there to share it with us.   It all began 
with a retrospective on the year 1984, and then the Galvanized Jazz Band, 
with guests Noel Kaletsky (clarinet) and Dirck Spicer (vibes), took off via 
'Airmail Special' and played the tunes they recorded on Jan 1,1984.   It was an 
exciting evening of music and of reminiscing about the great times at the 
Millpond Tavern over the 35 years we played there.   Helen Thomas, the former owner 
of the Millpond, was there, and described the “spectacular evening” as a “
magical time never to be forgotten”.   And it wasn't just the music that was good. 
  The food and service were fabulous as well!   Not a single complaint! And, 
most of the CDs were gone!   We're definitely going to do this again some day! 
  By the way, we only have a few 'Airmail Special' CDs left.   We'll order 
more.

This Thursday!
Bill Logozzo's Heartbeat Jazz Band will be at Olivers in Essex on Thursday, 
Dec 6th, 7-10PM, with Skip Hughes ! This is a great spot, nice casual 
atmosphere, and good food at a reasonable price.    Of course the music is hot hot hot! 
  Dancing too!   Look for them at Olivers usually on the first Thursday of 
each month.   They'll also be doing a Jazz Service at the East Hampton 
Congregational Church on Sunday morning, Jan 13th.   Contact Bill Logozzo at Bill 
@nutmegchrome.com for information on the band and how to order CDs.   

SUNDAYS at Marisa's in Trumbull!   
We'll be back on Sunday, Jan 20th, 6-8:30 with trombonist Craig Grant!  
Remember, there is no cover or minimum at Marisa's, but because the food is 
fabulous, you're going to want to order dinner.  There's dancing too!   Marisa's is 
very easy to get to: take the Merritt Parkway toward Trumbull, get off at Exit 
48, head north for about 3 miles, and it's on your right.   This is a good 
size restaurant, with plenty of seating and parking, and a nice dance floor too.  
 Marisa's address is 6540 Main Street, Trumbull, CT 06611.   The telephone 
number is 203-459-4225.  Call now for reservations!

The Great Connecticut Traditional Jazz Festival

It's all set for July 25, 26 and 27, at the Sunrise Resort in Moodus!   I 
don't have all the details yet, but I heard rumors that it's going to be the best 
Fest yet!   Names like Jeff Barnhart Allstars, Cornet Chop Suey, Igor's Jazz 
Cowboys, Blue Street, Midiri Brothers, Galvanized Jazz Band with Jane 
Campedelli and JP Alessi (sax player and leader of French Preservation New Orleans 
Jazz Band!), and more, much more!  Call 1-800-HOTEVENT for a brochure, or to buy 
your tickets in advance.   It really helps.   Why not buy tickets for some 
lucky person for Christmas?

The Hot Steamed Jazz Festival is set for 2008! Mark your calendars for June 
27, 28 and 29. We'll be there along with a host of other talented musicians for
