That was a great day of fun and music in San Anselmo.  That was a fine party to be a part of. We had the street closed there was a Parade, there were booths along the street, kids having fun everywhere and great music up and down the street it all went very well. 

  Talk about community pride I think we were feeling it yesterday under mostly grey and threatening skies the Volunteers of San Anselmo pulled off a very fine event.

  Here is the first of a few video clips coming up here.
  
  The Drake High Jazz Band playing on the Town Hall Steps.




   This High School Jazz Band just Kicks Ass as they say. Think of this.. it's October this years band has been playing for maybe one month. One month Wow! Well yes I bet a bunch of these kids were in this band last year too and maybe you recognized their great drummers Nate Wong whose Mind Jazz Quartet played at last year's Music in the Park Series and Sean Higgins who you may remember from last year's awesome performance with Soul Pie.. So anyways if you were to align this double drummer combination with this very talented Bass man Spencer Andrews then you have  a very strong rhythm section along with a bunch of other great and talented players such as Jordan Burdick on trombone and many more.

Spencer Andrews


   If they sound good now how much better by April 2007? Chip Boaz is the musical director and he deserves a major... Wow! of appreciation ... for his fine work and dedication and education of and for and to the students of Sir Francis Drake High School.







  
 Cryptic Message 2: (and final one, forgive me everybody -- always get a phone number.. I know.) Didn't mean to signal you out Red thought you might be the bold one, the offer stands (always), the mountain stands, Sitting Bull awaits, take it to the High Place always.
