You need to come to the US (Washington, DC) and perform

Looking real good, Jazzy
You never posted the pic of your loaded Smart Car though, and I'm dying to see it
I need to find a tiny, fuel-sipping, bass-friendly alternative to my Mercury anchor ...errr... Sable wagon.

And Jacko's right about the shirt too!

Great pics!

I didn't take my smart car this gig as I had other people to carry in the car. Maybe I will just load it up for a photo.

Here is a clip on you tube from the gig. Sound is not great but you can get an idea of how my Europa sounds.

Very nice Jazzyvee!! Great sax player! And the bass sounds (and looks) great too!

Swinging!
An excellent groove, and smooth playing all around.

Really good stuff Jazzy- my 4 year old daughter and 1 year old son wandered in while it was playing and had an impromptu groove party, so I think that means they like it too!
