The Basie set really swung; all the solos were artful crowd-pleasers, especially Sherman Irby's solo, which was one of the craziest, most amusing dang things I've ever heard. Ted Nash's modern art-inspired suite was very entertaining as well as exhausting for both the band and the audience. I was disappointed that at the end of the suite, the audience seemed content to give a standing o but seemed resigned to let the band call it a night without coming back for an encore (The last time I saw the LCJO in Dallas a few years ago, Mr. Marsalis came back for a memorable, heartful solo of 'Embraceable You'). Even without the encore, it was a brilliant concert. Saw the band in Dallas last night (March 5) and they sounded great.

I know the written version here is a lot longer and even more impressive. If I am not mistaken, when I first saw it on Superbowl Sunday, it was the complete version that is writtn here. Please clearify this for me and if so, is there a version available in its entirety? Thanks again for this Spot On tribute the Saints and our beloved city.

I was in a horrible car accident a year ago with my daughter. I have been unable to work since the accident due to my injuries and I have not been able to buy my daughter any gifts. She wants an ipod nano so bad and it would be soo awesome if I were to win so I could give it to her for her birthday!!!!! I think that it is wonderful that I could possibly win an ipod nano.
