Never saw them, but our HS had Louie Belson, Clark Terry, Buddy Rich, Doc Severson, Urbie Green and a few others play with our Jazz Band. Not all at the same time :)

I saw Ian Anderson a couple of years ago. Would loved to have seen him in his prime. I know he’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but the guy can play a flute.

The only thing that played at our high school was the Senior and Junior Choirs, and I once sang the Peter, Paul and Mary song "If I Had a Hammer" with a fellow student there in my junior or senior year.

I like Cajun/Zydeco music too. Beausoleil is one of my favorite bands. Saw them once when the Oneida Nation had a Cajun weekend here back around 2000.

I also like Gaelic Storm. First hear their music in the movie "Titanic," and bought several of their albums. I see they are scheduled to play at a pub in Pawling, New York in Dutchess County in June, but I wouldn't drive down there just to see them. First of all...too old. Second of all, with the mask mandate still intact, I'd not waste my time going anywhere other than the grocery store, or doctor appointments if I have to wear a mask. I used to meet friends at the local casino here once a month, but it's been a year since I last went, and I won't go back until you don't have to wear a mask.
