A jazz pal of mine in NYC just sent be a brief email. He says last night's sets were incredible, that Spualding and Chambers were on fire, Cables was great and that Feddie's lip was in great shape and the he was blowing up a storm.

DAMN!

Allan, is are there places around my neck of the woods where I can go to watch some of these guys?

Gilbert: Memphis in may is coming up but I haven't looked at the lineup yet.

Thanks Allan,.... I just don't know where to look to find such venues, and even if I did, I wouldn't know which Jazz performers are really great, and worth traveling down there to see. Dallas would be great because my wifes uncle lives about 40 min. outside of Dallas, so room and board are free.

It would be too much to go and come in one day, Dallas is a solid 500 mile round trip.

Arky, like mentioned previously, I have to go to Memphis on May 10th and 11th (Thursday & Friday). If there are any Blues or Jazz performances going on, I would probably be willing to stay until the 12th (Saturday). Any idea where to look for info on this?
