Dixieland Monterey

So it is that time again where I update you on my memories of the jazz festival. Anyways, James and I arrived in Monterey when James realized he packed light, so just before we went to the Portola Hotel we checked in our hotel and then we went to the Portola Hotel where we went searching for some food, but couldn't get what we wanted until 3. At 3 pm we got our badges from Anne and Jeff and that is when I also showed Anne my ring. James and I decided to watch Titan Hot Seven for a little bit and then we went and ate lunch. After Titan Hot Seven finished James and I went to Ivory and Gold to sell. Since Titan Hot Seven had to play at 5:30 pm Ivory and Gold had to stop the set 5 minutes ahead a time, so when James and I were done selling we helped Anne pack up the cds and walked with her to the Titan Hot Seven set. After the Titan Hot Seven set James, Anne, Jeff, and I walked to the Wharf Theater where James and I went to go sell the cds, but we were very lucky and we got to watch Ivory and Gold play where Anne got some pig slippers, so she played in them. Then James and I stayed and watched We 3 where Danny and Jeff messed with Bob's head. After We 3 James and I walked back to the Portola Hotel to watch the last Titan Hot Seven set. Then on Saturday James and I went to go see We 3 again, but we were late and the room was full, so instead we went to the hospitality room to hang out and eat. Then we decided to go see Jeff's pianorama where I was asked if I was Jeff's wife... James decided to study at the cd table so that Anne can go in and play with Jeff. After Jeff's pianorama I went with Jeff and Anne to go watch Titan Hot Seven where James later met me. After Titan Hot Seven's set James, Jeff, Anne, and I went to the hospitality room to go eat and that was when Jeff asked James and I if we wanted to go eat with him, Anne, and Danny after their 5:30 Titan Hot Seven set. Then I walked to Gilbert's with Jeff and Anne and James later came to join us to go sell cds for Ivory and Gold. After Ivory and Gold James and I went to Titan Hot Seven's set and after that set we went to go eat dinner at an Indian restaurant where Jeff made a toast about James and I and about our wedding and then we went and had some drinks with Anne, Jeff, and Danny where we met some of their friends and Jeff told them that James and I were engaged. After that James and I went to go and watch Titan Hot Seven's last set. On Sunday James and I wanted to go see Titan Hot Seven's first set, but our cell phones didn't update so we were late and never got to see Titan Hot Seven's first set. James and I then went to go see Blue Street play after that we went and saw Yve Evans and Company's set where Yve embarrassed us by telling the audience that we were engaged and how proud she was of us and she also made me run up to the stage to show her my ring. Then James and I went and watched Titan Hot Seven's last set where Jeff also decided to embarrass us as well by playing here comes the bride to the tune of Panama. Then James and I went and sold for Ivory and Gold where I became Danny's wife which was what we ended our festival with which was a bit weird because we always end our festivals with Titan Hot Seven. The highlights of this festival was having some drinks with Anne, Jeff, and Danny, going out to dinner with Anne, Jeff, and Danny, seeing Anne get her slippers, seeing Jeff and Danny mess with Bob's head, finding out that Bob was engaged, talking to Bob's fiancee about weddings, Yve playing James and I a song and then making me go up to the stage to show her my ring, Yve telling us how proud she is of us, Jeff telling the audience we were engaged and playing here comes the bride, seeing a picture of Danny's baby girl, watching Jeff almost eat Danny's food as we were in the elevator, and Jeff making a toast to James and I.
