I'm not a jazz fan... BUT.... Dave Brubeck does sound interesting :-) only for the mere fact that I can find out who Donald Fagen was actually singing about in "New Frontier" :-)
Oh... I would so be there (The Rex etc)....today.... if it wasn't for Bier Markt last night.... that place is nothing but trouble :) Cheers Dave P.S. Actually.. I may yet go to NPS today just to snap as I see by a mail notice I received that my "new" (to me) lens has just arrived from the U.K. and don't mention "beer"... I'm giving up drinking after last night.... well Ok maybe just ONE more *smirk* -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of frank theriault Sent: Friday, June 21, 2002 5:38 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Jazz Festival in Toronto Just a reminder to our TOPDML comrades that the Downtown Jazz Festival starts this weekend. Lots of free concerts around town; at least three of them at Nathan Phillips Square tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully a few photo ops - I'll be hanging around looking for some. If anyone is planning a sojourn into the Big Smoke (you guys in the 'burbs) to take anything in, lemme know, 'cause I'll be there anyways. Haven't decided if I'll take in any of the big names this week, but Dave Brubeck and Marian McPartland are tempting. Last year I saw and heard Joshua Redman, and he and his band were incredible. Also a heads up that the Beaches Jazz Festival should be coming up soon. That might make a really good TOPDML event, as they close off Queen Street East at the Beaches, and there are lots of bands playing on street corners and the like. The crowds along the street are great, and although they don't tend to have any big-name performers, the party atmosphere is unmatched. Photo-ops a-go-go! regards, frank -- "The optimist thinks this is the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears it is true." -J.
