I have always loved JazzFest, for a few reasons. Number one, it ususally falls on my birthday, July 20th, and I turn 35 this year. Also plenty of great local and national entertainment.

Here are some highlights:

– Limited edition of 200 giclee poster prints signed by yours truly (shown) at the merch stand ONLY $12!

– Derek Trucks and his wife Susan Tedeschi play the main stage on Friday (8:30 and 10 PM)

– JazzFest Poetry Tent on Saturday

5 PM open reading featuring Charles Luden

7 PM Poetry Slam contest

– Second Stage on Saturday

Urban Blues featuring Jesse Christen 8 PM

– Main Stage on Saturday

Robert Cray 10 PM on Saturday

 

See you all there!
