Come to Jazz Fest for your exposure.

You can mix and mingle with 60-90,000 folks each day all weekend, on a horse track infield, share bugs of all types from caterpillars to virus, eat some of the best food in the world and listen to 3500 musicians playing on 12 sound stages. Last Sunday, playing at the same time on adjacent stages, was Dave Mathews,  Earth, Wind and Fire, and Etta James. Music is played on each stage from 1100 to 1900 daily.
That way you can be happy and get the flu at the same time.

What a deal!!!

Come see us

The one important thing I have learned over the years is the difference
between taking one's work seriously and taking one's self seriously. The
first is imperative and the second is disastrous.
