Up-side down, girl, you turn me

At noon we had a lot of fun in the centre of Gladbeck, convincing people to come to the "Maschinenhalle" to the jazzfestival.
We thougth we were at home in Eisden(B)with that same big hall en 2 mine lifts on this area.
At each stage change we got the guests outside, where the sun slowly sunk.
As usual the women get all our attention, but this time things almost went totally wrong.
Those great green eyes of that red-haired young lady put a spell on our banjo player...

Tiger Rag!

Great! On the openingsevening at the Düsseldorfer Jazzrally 2010 (D) we played Tiger Rag on the stage. Maurits (cl) made some arrangements to this tune for the Oakcity Jazzband.
We are very pleased dat somebody in the audience made a video of that en put it on YouTube! Dear "fotoarbeit", many thanks to share this. To everyone who read this, enjoy with us!

Jamsessie at the IBIS hotel Dresden

This is the video our drummer Franky took of the spontaneous jamsession at the IBIS Hotel in Dresden with musicians of Blue Note Six, Salt River, Lamarotte and -of course- the Oakcity Jazzband. After that session the members of the Oakcity Jazzband were called "die verrukte Belgiër" That means more or less the fools from Belgium. We are very honoured with that title.
