I received a most amazing spindle of cds from Festngator after the thing. It kept us going, having the music while we were in exile. He truly shares the fest spirit!

Damn, I'm listening to Bonnie right now and I think she's sold me on my decision as to who wins the BonnieRaitt/JillScott toss up.

Oh, I dunno, I like horns, I like something a little peppy (it helps during work), I like (dare I say) BNAs, I like Irma, the Nevilles, the Meters, don't like rap ....is that enough to start???...surprise me, from the feedback here it will be great!:D

Congrats on the anniversary!

You keep bumpin' Mr. F... you deserve all of the accolades. I still can't get some of the stuff you sent me last year out of my CD player. God bless you.

[Amy Winette]

You are the best FestN, great to keep this one up near the top so more folks can be lucky enough to experience your generosity :)

[Ms. Festngator]

I'm late to checking in on this thread but just wanted to agree that Festngator is THE BEST. He has brought music to my life for 20 married years and 30 years total. Thanks to all you wonderful Threadheads for the Anniversary wishes. We look forward to celebrating with everyone at Fest. Cheers!

Happy Anniversary Mr & Mrs FestnGator! And a big THANKYOU for my cds! Dey are da BOMB! Hoping to meet up with ya'll here in Tampa before JF but I think we both have crazy schedules and it may not happen but we must have a dink in NOLA together and then after we get back ... maybe at WMNF's Tropical Heatwave in Ybor? or maybe a lazy day down the river in canoes? not Hillsborough but maybe the Alafia or Myakka?

[Festngator]

[withbellson]

Okay, he didn't really send us 35 cd's in our first care package...it was just more like...uuggh 3! And I am sure he will send no more than two more for our wedding cd's!

You are amazing!!! when do you have time to practice law?

Listening to Norah Jones for the first time and it is just awesome :)

WE LUV U MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

f***ing off the sidewall tires~

[mightyradgumbo]

Hey mr and mrsfestngator happy anniversary-continue to celebrate your anniversary until the next one rolls around, then repeat :D
Look forward to seeing yawl in a couple of weeks

[Festngator]

Boy I love this post...... actually I wanted to make sure that everyone has received their cds. Just need to know if you did not receive them.

[jazzfestchic]

I got them yesterday. Thx a million!!!

[Festngator]

FOMS = how can you be in 2 places at once........ ( finish this line 1st win Harry connick show from3-17)
has anyone not gotten CDs promised to them?

[TheGuzilla]

many thanks for the CD's... I realized I thanked you by email, but after giving them a listen (Yes, Christina rocked) thought I'd bump this back where it belongs. Many thanks...

my 1 regret is that due to pre-Fest packing, some minor work emergencies, plus computer AND printer troubles, I have not been able to finish the CDs I promised you to my satisfaction. I am extremely sorry...

but in that karmic way only Jazz Fest can create, you'll get them post-Fest. (was hoping to get it all done, but with all the logistics, time got away from me)

thanks again!
