StLJN turns 15

Fifteen years ago today, on April 24, 2005, the first post went up on St. Louis Jazz Notes.

Being 15 years old makes StLJN positively ancient in Internet time, but after nearly 5,300 posts, the site continues to, in the words of St. Louis' own Clark Terry, "keep on keepin' on."

It's still one of the longest continuously operating jazz blogs in the world and one of the longest running music websites in St. Louis, and remains the city's most complete and regularly updated source devoted to news about jazz.

Thanks once again to all the readers, commenters, musicians, music students and educators, presenters, club owners, publicists, tipsters, media people, record label employees, and others who have taken an interest in the site over the years. Your time and continued attention are much appreciated.

As usual, if you have any anniversary wishes, congratulations, questions, suggestions, or complaints, the comments are open.
