Well if it is in the next few weeks you are guaranteed to be exhausted. Here’s the game plan:<\/p>\n
Today starts Jazz Fest – get your ticket in your hand. Brass Pass if you can still get one, which I heard you can, $350 not only gets you into 7 days of the best music in the world but also is a big donation to the best radio station in the world – WWOZ – and wait, the food, forgetaboutit, but wait there’s more, there’s art and jewelry and let me tell you, you won’t want for anything. <\/p>\n
Then Friday night, tonight, there is Helen Gillet and James Singleton at Zeitgeist and tomorrow night, Saturday night, at Bacchanal around 9PM Chuck Perkins. <\/p>\n
But wait then there is all next week Jazz Fest – my 50th birthday where Jon Bon Jovi will be singing to me (forget about the other 90,000 people there, like my then 6-year-old niece told her mother, let me have my fantasy), and then we are closing the fest with Alan Toussaint, Neil Young and the Neville Brothers – excuse me, would you be anywhere else?<\/p>\n
Then there’s my clothing optional pool party. <\/p>\n
And while I’m away for business, there is yet more fun to be had – a friend writes that on May 13th at the Blue Nile: “my dj friend from Ibiza comin in and spinnin that night starting round 8 or 9 i guess..still puttin together flyers and promo stuff but please come out? Tell anyone you think would like housey, soulful, jazzy, island music to come too. <\/p>\n
Take your vitamins, drink plenty of water, put your sun screen on and come on down – the party has started. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
