Anybody here ever use DIGG? Earlier today I dugg the Big Sam article, in theory when we "digg" a story, and make it popular, thousands of people across the globe will see it and immediately become fans of Brass :eek:
Digg Big Sam's story (http://digg.com/music/Big_Sam_Williams_plays_the_trombone_for_real_New_O rleans) at http://digg.com/music/Big_Sam_Williams_plays_the_trombone_for_real_New_O rleans
from Digg's "About Us" page: Everything on Digg — from news to videos to images to Podcasts — is submitted by our community (that would be you). Once something is submitted, other people see it and Digg what they like best. If your submission rocks and receives enough Diggs, it is promoted to the front page for the millions of our visitors to see.
* I also Dugg a bunch of other positive New Orleans articles, once there... click on the "Submitter" (stevemiami) and it'll list some recent titles.

Gonna be there Saturday night for sure. Been a couple of years since Big Sam has been here in SF. I love the opportunity to show people "now THIS is why we go to Jazzfest every year!"

can't wait! kibbie is still hobbled from fest, so maybe not him...sprained his foot the closing sun night/early am at zigaboo...although he's in denial, BSFN won't help that situation...

no way? I never knew that? Karma for Kibbie so he can get back up to shaking his ass like he usually does :)

Have a real big time, hope some folks get what we know and report back please. I am so looking forward to the review and the response from the crowd.

Great article. Newbies have got to see him live though, the albums just dont do them the proper justice.

Looking forward to Saturday! I agree that the albums just don't quite capture Sam. Peace, Love and Understanding was one of the CDs I was looking forward to the most while in post-Fest afterglow. Not really doing it for me, though. Still, everyone needs to go out and buy three copies immediately!
