I'm very happy to be a part of this network.  I invite all to come to the performance by the Lost Civilizations experimental music project featuring Mike Sebastian (sax), Sam Lohman (drums) and Patrick Whitehead (as well as myself on basscello) at the Black Squirrel's Tap Room on Sunday, July 19; details:   http://goo.gl/tIzh1N .  Also on the bill is the DC Improvisers Collective (also featuring Mike Sebastian on sax) and Utenzil.  It's going to be quite an evening -- and it's free!

Dear WASHINGTON DC JAZZ NETWORK ,

Our prayers are with the victims and families of all  those who have been touched by this destructive natural disaster.

May Our Lord give them strength to live through this difficult test.

George, thank you and thank GOD for blessing you with insight to create WDCJN!   The Network has been my connection to the greatest Jazz Legends alive today and Emerging Jazz Icons.  Many of whom I've met and collaborated with over the last 3 yrs.  Its a Wonderful thing when Creativity collides with History, Experience and Cosmic Energy and that's exactly the vortex you've created with the WDCJN.  Keep letting your light Shine Brother,......... Keep letting it SHINE!

Thank you, George! I am so excited about the extended love and I, like Derryl have been  trying to figure out the short cut to share with some of my facebook family this wonderful venue. I think the best way maybe to send the message from my yahoo mail to my facebook timeline and then forward it to those whom I would like to invite. Do you agree?

Hello George, I am proud to be a member of the Washington DC Jazz Network (WDJN).
I am able to find out what's going on in town and on the east coast
and to network with other musicians. I get a lot of my news from the emails I receive from WJN.
I also would like to thank you for supporting the Jazz
program at Howard University in Washington, DC. Keep up the great work.~~~FRED IRBY
