kulu se mama

my beloved bearcats are finished. those bastards. or as i would say on the new-old bnbb: ****! those ******* ********! what the **** am i going to do for the next 3 weeks. ****!

that's pretty funny. with thelonious, you never know.

oscar treadwell (aka arthur pederson) was honored in cincinnati last night for his contributions to the world of jazz. oscar treadwell was a jazz disc jockey who's been honored by songs by charlie parker ("an oscar for treadwell" and thelonious monk "oska t.") the best part of all this - he has decided to donate his 6,000 jazz cd collection to the cincinnati public library. yipee!

dan - thanks. i actually knew jazzbo is lon. that was my sad attempt at humor.

i was going to remain anonymous, but there's too many good people over here. i always wanted to be kulu se mama, but when i first registered at the bnbb (way back in may of 99), i just used 1/2 of my email address. i think alot of people feel - this is a new day dawning - might as well go with the flow. who the hell is jazzbo anyhow?

you're a good man ed swinnich.

i'm just glad i actually got to delete the "ebay craziness - redux" thread before the board disappeared. it actually felt good.

b3-er, another refugee here. this place looks great. thanks for taking us on.

i never thought i would leave the bnbb, but here i am. i didn't post much, but i was there every single day. this and the all about jazz site look promising. i honestly believe that the increased traffic to the blue note site caused by the norah jones phenom did us all in. they did not want the rest of the world to see all of the crazies and get scared away. next year at this time when norah is on emi or her new album has flopped, they may see the error in their ways.
