This is just too weird to let pass.

Here's a quick-read news release about this strange occurrence. A fan couldn't get his money back. The police listened and said the fan had a point. It raises all kinds of issues.

My favorite quote from the story is "not everything is New Orleans funeral music".

Sounds like the"fan" needs a jazz music history education. He probably doesn't consider Dixieland jazz either.

I think this guy has "way more issues" than the definition of jazz. "My doctor told me..." What's up with that?

I liked this quote:

:"The jazz purist claimed his doctor had warned it was "psychologically inadvisable" for him to listen to anything that could be mistaken for mere contemporary music."

Since I'm not a jazz musician, I've never been accused of not being a jazz purist.

I have been accused of mixing jazz with bluegrass, and I plead guilty. But no ones ever called the cops because of it!

I can't believe the cops actually showed up for the call. Must have been a slow crime night. Or the cops wanted an excuse to go to the concert.

Is this guy related to the woman who called the police because McD's ran out of fries?

I read the spanish news , I think they are a sorta of hunt "clan" or jazz inquisitors KKK .

'I thought I had seen it all", I was obviously mistaken, "Ochs said after the incident, which became even stranger when one of the Civil Guard officers on the scene decided to examin the music performed in the festival by the jazz sax man. "Maybe he was very skilled expert in the matter (the police agent) him submitted Ochs music to a kind of summary proceedings. More surprisingly, it reached a conclusion consistent with that of the complainant: "the music of the saxophonist IS NOT jazz". oops..!

Now I´ll be plenty of check my playlist before my gigs with BIAB, only RealBook ....preventing some Medical order put me on jail.
