Last Week
=====================================================

Thanks to all of you who participated in the Westchester Jazz Jam's
trial run at Isabella's in Ossining. It was a great turnout, and the
level of musicianship was high. We were swinging from the rafters!
One or two of us was even swinging from the lamppost by the end (only
kidding.)

But Isabella's seems like a hit. Everyone agreed the food is very
good (and it's not that common for a Westchester restaurant to please
lots of different people unanimously.) The parking was easy, and the
location is relatively convenient.

Inside, there are 3 rooms: the bar/ pizza room, the main dining room,
and the party room. We played in the party room, and once they turned
the lights down, it really felt like a night club!

Ossining has no live music scene right now and Dennis who lives in
Ossining is excited because it's only a stone's throw from his house.
Years ago, there was by-all-accounts a pretty happening live music
venue in Ossining which closed just months before he and Caroline
moved there about 5 years ago.

Even the Mike Risko Music School said they would try to support the
jam by hanging flyers in their school - thanks, Mike!
