Glad you enjoyed the Poem Jon. Feel free to pass it on (everybody). I wrote
the original parody 40 years ago during my day gig life, for an Automotive
Company with a chain of repair shops.  Modified it for jazz musicians about
1992 when coming back to my first love. It is not copyrighted.

Hey Jon, did a wedding last week. A gal from Ascona married a guy from the
Philly suburbs. They called to book us, from Switzerland several months ago
as both were/are living there now. Wedding in PA.

At the wedding I mentioned the Ascona jazz festival and how much the US jazz
musicians loved it. Gal turned out to have been a volunteer with the event.
Her first words after we talked about the Festival that were "Do you know
Jon Erik Kellso?" Hmmmmm

Cheers,
Steve Barbone

yaaa....I get around, what can I tell ya? heh heh.
but seriously, I wonder who that volunteer was.
I have played the Ascona fest a bunch of times, but not for a few years.
I am now an engaged man--getting married in March!
Very excited about it.
All you musicians--save your virtual breath--the answer is--
yes, I have a band already picked out. Sorry!
It's gonna be the Nighthawks.
surprised?
happy holidaze,
Jon-Erik Kellso
