FREESTYLE JAZZ NEEDS YOUR HELP!

(Blogmeister's note: here's something I've received via email today that I thought was important enough to share with you readers since just about everything Dee Pop is involved with is automatically worth your support, especially his tireless Herculean Efforts [thanks Jerry Lewis!] to keep avant garde jazz alive and thriving under usually difficult circumstances. So if you're an aficionado of the freedom-in-jazz movement and are able to attend any or all of the gigs I've kindly listed below, please get offa yer duff and do just that before original live avant sounds become the thing of boring culture and jaunty beret-wearing! And we don't wanna see the avant garde lowered to such standards, do we?)

Help this series survive! Please foward this email to anyone you feel might be interested. This is serious. I need your help! Thanks with all sincerity, Dee Pop
