Synopsis: In 2010, I had the good fortune of making 24 cross-country weekend trips to check out straightahead Jazz, my first passion, in New York City, all the while, living out the bi-coastal fantasy of a west coast ‘rocket scientist’ and an east coast ‘Jazz cat’! In this offering, the complete weekend itineraries are recounted (e.g., airports, shows, venues, plays, movies, restaurants, etc.) in order to re-capture the essence of a super fun weekend in NYC, the Jazz capital of the world. All in all, 226 performances were taken in – not bad!!! Perhaps you will wander off and daydream, pretending to share the table with me at the Jazz club – drinks on me this first set, of course!
