London is currently hosting a huge jazz festival, with dozens of big-name performances each night. Tonight, I met up with my flight buddy (a nice gent from Macalester) to see Marcus Roberts at Wigmore Hall. Roberts - a blind pianist from Jacksonville - put on an amazing show, accompanied by Jason Marsalis and Roland Guerin.
I realize this sounds like a newspaper review, but I just had to put it up to showcase the joys of being in a city. Granted, it was no USC jazz band rocking out to '25 or 6 to 4', but it was one of the best shows I've been to in awhile...I seriously don't know how his fingers stayed on.
But that's all for tonight, folks. I'm off to prepare an art history outline!
