Big Mama Sue and her ragtime jazz band played a show for students at Bigfork High School on Friday afternoon as part of the Glacier Jazz Stampede going on in Kalispell.

"These kids are great, they're really enjoying it," said John Van, co-chair of the Stampede, who was in the BHS gym to watch the show.

Big Mama Sue and her band played a few old-time jazz tunes, got students and teachers to play kazoos to "When the Saints Go Marching In," and enteratined with everything from washboard solos to "Flight of the Bumblebees" on a sousaphone.
