Hello, A reminder that the Gypsy Den will be closed for the 4th for
the holiday so no Jam Session. The next one will be July 18 at 7:00pm.

Hi there!

I'm having friends over tomorrow (Sunday) to welcome my new girlfriend,
Sarah, from Brazil to the U.S.   This will be her first day in this country, so
I wanted to show
her a great time..
Since the pool has been so nice, I thought the best
thing to do would be to have a pool party/barbeque/jam session...

There will be lots of music making, in fact bring your
instrument, bathing suit, and spend the afternoon with
us if you're free!  There will be musicians from many different
scenes....Brazilian choro
guys, blues/rock guys, and hopefully some gypsy jazz guys (and gals)

We'll start at the pool around 2:00pm, and go until
10pm or so....
There are tennis courts, if you want to bring your own
raquets and balls...

I'll have some regular hotdog/hamburger/beer
selections, but if you'd like to bring your own food
or drink, please feel free..
I'm not planning on a huge affair...but you can bring a friend, of course!
Hope to see you... RSVP if you can....
Thanks,

Ted

Greetings,

I just found out that another Southern California Gypsy Jazz group exists. 

I invite everyone to share our resources, jam and gig announcements, and networks.

Sincerely,

My late 80's Japanese Saga is sweet and has a big tone pickup, DR tailpiece, and
Waverly
tuners. However, after a few years with it I could still be talked out of it.
Oberg played it and
said it was worth $2000.

This newly formed Southern California group aims to become a great resource for
anyone
interested in learning, playing, or hearing Django-style jazz.  The group
promotes
networking and keeps everyone informed about gypsy jazz jams, gigs,
performances, and
musical opportunities.

The success of this group depends on active participation of its members.  Post
your jazz
gigs, shows, announcements, and comments.

Check out "Links" for gypsy jazz musicians and groups, ongoing jams, festivals,
concerts,
CDs and DVDs, training materials, and musical instruments.

Hopefully this newly formed group will help make Southern California a hotbed
for gypsy
jazz.

Thanks for your support,
David Naiditch
