Letter to the JazzBloggers
Dear JazzBloggers,
Thank you for supporting the JazzBlog, and thank you even more for taking an interest in Jazz. There is so much to put up here, I think I have a lifetime work of work set out for me! As long as people are still reading, and are still interested, I will do what I can to do these wonderful musicians and their work justice.
I have added new links to two online Jazz radio stations, as well as several artists. Etherbeat is an "interesting" selection of music they call "The Urban Alternative". Much more traditional jazz can be found on radioioJazz, which in my opinion is and excellent station. In fact, I'm listening to it right now. Links will be added constantly, as it is impossible to come up with all of the names and sites I think people would like to see. If you notice someone is missing, please speak up and I will add them.
Anonymous posts are welcome. Asshats will be deleted. Complaints will not be misconstrued as asshattery. Complaints are welcome as, after all, there is no way I can improve without knowing what you would like to see done differently.
E.L. Wisty has asked about the new Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane CD (at Carnegie Hall), and unfortunately I haven't been able to listen to it yet. I'm waiting for a copy to come in at my Andrew's store, and then hopefully I, or possibly Andrew if I can get him interested, will write a review on the CD. Perhaps Andy has been able to listen, and he could write a review. Whoever ends up writing the review, E.L.'s question will be answered.
Requests are always welcome, and I will get to them as soon as I can. If you have a request, some feedback on something you would like to see, a question, comment, or experience you would like to share, please feel free to post.
I welcome contributors of any kind. Thank you Andy for already taking an interest in being a contributor. If anyone else is interested, please post a comment, or send me an email, with an email address that I can send you a team invitation to.
Happy New Year, everyone, welcome to 2006!
Best Wishes to you all,
Jack

Yo, I think I deleted your post before the asshat saw it, so he probably won't bother you. If he does, though, get in touch with ginab. She has the secret formula for blocking him.
I love that word, asshat. Where did you get that?

Thanks. I don't mind if they come after me, I'll read them and delete them. I was raised by two highly critical human beings, it really takes a lot to get to me. :)

No problem, it's a nice break from pushing and pulling vertices on 3D models!

Re "asshats":
Someone said it in the computer science lab when I first started at university. I laughed so hard when I heard it. Ever since then, I've adopted it. I even contributed my own version of the word... "asshattery". (This happens a lot on the internet, I find. :) )

I have not heard the new Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane CD.
I've been reading the blog but not posting, sorry Jack.
I'll get on the stick and post some reviews.
