And a further comment

>>I've never really lost any sleep over jazz enthusiasts coming to our
shows by accident, no! The whole point is that we didn't want the band
name to be a mission statement, like so many are. It doesn't really
say anything about us and is quite playful and fun... therefore good
enough for us. I don't think Django or Stefan would mind too much, at
least young people are still into their music and willing to borrow a
name from then and try to do something progressive and interesting
with it. I thought that's what music was all about? We're all big jazz
fans, although I'm personally more into Albert Ayler and Ornette
Coleman etc... so why not call our band a jazz name!
