[JPL] Thanksgiving

[Diana Smith]

Wonderful thoughts Jae! Thanks for all you do! Music is a powerful healing
energy and it is so important for people to have access to it on the radio,
ipods (etc) or if possible, in person. We are blessed here in Vegas to find
or create venues to do our live thing. Now we have a beautiful Indian
restaurant across from the Hard Rock where locals and tourists can come on a
Monday night early and experience our brand of World Jazz. Much of our
material is from composers born in other countries. Hopefully if any jazz
programers on this list plan to come to Vegas, they will make a point of
coming in and saying hello :-). We have been doing our best to keep jazz
alive in Vegas for the last 11 years. Here is last week's review from the
Las Vegas City Life:

All the Best to Jae and all the jazz programers and artists on the list from
the Rajmahal, Diana and Raj
