Wonderful selection of artists to choose from this year

Dee Dee Bridgewater...

Hiromi....either solo or as trio or better still at  Bennets Lane Jazz Bar. Yep up close. Thats right three separate gigs

Terence Blanchard.........wow

Dr Lonnie Smith..........Even though the other artists are brilliant. Lonnie is on at Bennets Lane......Organ, guitar, drums....Groooooooooooooove fest.........very tempting its at a bar

	Yep, that's where I will be John. Booked for a myself and a friend. Our wifes hate going to venues if you have to stand. We feel the complete opposite ourselves, much rather stand.
