You missed it if you weren’t there…seriously…this news just in: THE MID ATLANTIC JAZZ FESTIVAL WAS OFF THE HOOK!
Held at the same hotel where the legendary East Coast Jazz Festival once set up shop – God Bless you, Ronnie Wells – Paul Carr, his lovely wife and the Jazz Academy brought back the swing, good times and smiling faces to Rockville. It was great. Here are my highlights:
-hangin’ with my man Wes Biles and Jeff Neal on jam session that went from midnight to 2 am. Quiet Storm!!!
-alto great Bobby Watson sort of/kind of/slightly knowing who I am! Wow!
-The EBT/BRB set on Sat at noon. Swingin with 2 teenagers that are products of Paul’s Academy. We all done lost our jobs to these cats
-Sunday’s brunch with Lavenia
-seeing my favorite jazz fan Ms. Barbara
-bumping into Terrell Stafford, hearing the Anderson Twins and the Jolley Bros, the tribute to Bird…wowwie
It was all fantastic. As Paul said Sunday, “See you in 51 weeks”.
