they pick the best Jazz bands in town! it's so nice to see how kind and helpful they are when teaching. And at the end of the night, they simply want you to have fun! I absolutely love VSM Joplin and HIGHLY recommend everyone to bring their friends and family to one of their events and just experience how great it really is!
