Curious compliments

[infrogmation]

I gave a presentation at the New Orleans Music Colloquium (topic was Storyville this year). As is often the case, I also did a radio show dealing with some of the same material in a more casual manner.

A complimentary email from a listener to the radio show included the claim it was
"like getting a post-graduate education in some of the greatest music on the planet!"

While after my presentation at the Colloquium, one of the city's senior music researches told me:
"Good talk. It was very amusing".

I don't suppose this is podcasted anywhere?

I'd go with the first compliment.

I missed the presentation, but listened to parts of the radio show. Very interesting. :) I'll see you tomorrow after your appointment.

Nope. WWOZ was one of the first local stations to start doing webcasts, but not a whole lot has been availible as podcasts yet.

I would have felt the compliments to have been more appropriate for the opposite contexts.

I didn't think of my Colloquium presentation as being primarily amusing, though I didn't resist a few things like playing a recording of Kid Ory's band performing "All the Gals Go Crazy About the Way I Walk" right after I came on stage on crutches.
