DIXIELAND MONTEREY This year marks the 22nd year of the Dixieland Monterey festival, a paean to the humidity-soaked, New Orleans-born musical form that steps high even as it languidly slides on down the street. Tonight the festival kicks off with an All-Star Dance Party blaring with trombones and tweedling clarinets, a proper warm-up to a weekend of, swing, stride and ragtime by a cadre of the nation''s best early jazz musicians. For story, see page 22.
