Maybe we should ask the potential audiences about whether or not there should be a Jazz Festival, if you're looking to make money at it. Otherwise, just do it for the fun of it.

- James, people need all kinds of medical attention. Some need musical medical attention, this is where Jazz Surgery comes in. I guess I am one of the Jazz Surgeons on call. (chief sugeron ?)

Mikayla Gilbreath said… - Hello James. Thanks for inviting me to be your friend.
Yes I'm obsessed with jazz too, and that's just fine with me! I get called "jazz-nerd" or "that jazz girl" at school sometimes, and I consider it a compliment (even though they don't really intend it that way). Music is my life!
But singing is something I've never tried. In a way, playing an instrument is somewhat less "personal" than singing. An instrumentalist can blame his instrument when things don't go well. But a singer is right out there, all on their own. I admire the courage it must take to do that.
Thanks again for reaching out to me. It is an honor to be your friend.
