Wynton Marsalis at Massey hall.

[dimafleck: the living legend.]

just curious.

Wynton's a pampered juilliard pansy boy

j/k, i like him well enough

[phorbesie]

saw them at jazzfest this summer. i enjoyed it a lot. it was pretty mellow stuff.

Never saw the orchestra before but I did see the Wynton Marsalis Quartet at Jazz Fest a few years ago and it was one the greatest shows I've ever seen. I can't honestly describe how good it was, but then again I am a Jazz freak.

Should be a good show - have you heard the Willie Nelson/ Wynton Marsalis live album - it's facking GREAT!

Well, he's back with the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra tomorrow night!! Totally stoked.

Due to issues with having somebody to watch the kids, I have an extra ticket for the sold out show. FRONT ROW TICKET! Anyone here interested on catching the show with me and a buddy of mine from that killer vantage point? Get in touch asap. Ticket is $99

Have seen Wynton perform before but not with this band. Shit, I'd go see him just to hear a lecture. I wish I had the smallest fraction of musical talent/knowledge that this man has. Report on Wynton and the band from 60mins:

If this kind of stuff is interesting to you and you want to learn more about the history and context of jazz, I HIGHLY suggest watching the PBS series JAZZ. It is PHENOMENAL:

Anyone else?

Bueller?

Oh yeah, and did i mention that there's also about a 92% chance that we can go backstage after and meet the musicians!!!

I'm putting the ticket up online soon, but I'd rather it go to a Skank here.
