Billy Mata & the Texas Tradtion will be heading out Thursday (04/15/10) am for Sidney By The Sea,BC for the Victoria Hot Jazz Jubilee. There is a diversity of music. We will be doing more Western Swing than shuffles and waltzes. We will probably be the only group with a steel guitar and Cowboy Hats. Its a 4 day event. We're looking to have a good time. We've never been to this part of the country before so we're really looking forward to it. From what I hear we'll need our long sleeve shirts and jackets, not quite like South Texas. Anyone in the area come on out. I meet some Canadian Artist with Al Brisco at The Dallas steel show. Be sure and look me up if you come out. |

Roger, I'd bet that you and your steel will be a hit. They'll probably appreciate Billy backing you, too. _________________ Ray Harrison

Hey Roger, that last time I was in Victoria, BC.. there was a really great bag pipe player down by the waterfront... who did all Beatles's songs.... ya know hearing "Eleanor Rigby" in in all major chords kind of sent a shiver up me spine
You guys will slay 'em! And then you will turn your sights on the Sacramento Jazz Jubilee... again... I hear the young gals are still weeping from when ya'll left Sacramento last year....
Give me a call if you need some amps in Sac.! _________________ Dave Wren
