Denmark Dreams



Friday
At the Amager Jazzklub the audience had fidgety feet and danced, that was great to see!
Immediate after our show the jazzklub chairman invited us for a next time!
Many asked for our CD's and some "groupies" came for autographs and kisses. ;0)

Saturday
Early in the morning we paraded at the market in Køge.
It was cold when we started, but then the first springtime sun warmed up many womens hearts! And ours too.
Our entrance in streetparade style at the start of the Køge Jazzfestival was unexpected, and fun!
The audience stood up and encouraged the band by shouting and applause.
That evening the Oakcity Jazzband was "top of the bill", and we saw very happy people, and some of them emotional too, by the vocals and trumpettunes on "La Vie en Rose".
Even the sound engineer told us we did a great show. ;0)

Sunday
About noon we left Køge to go to Ishøj Kultur Café.
We think it was our best show, all the arrangements we rehearsed went right, and that felt good.
"Tiger Rag" was dedicated to a sophisticated lady in a panterlook dress, and when the "Sheik of Araby" was teaching his harem lady how to belly-dance, there was a roaring laughter.
Many thanks to the lady who gave us yellow roses, and to everyone else for cheering and your heartwarming standing ovation.

We didn't have much time to get back in Køge for our last gig.
It was the first sunday eve live music happening at Hugo's Vinkælder and it was great.
We were exhausted but still very happy and pleased with the warm welcome!

Denmark, we'll be back next year!
