I did a large amount of Jazz Web-surfing tonight. The 22nd Annual Montreal Jazz Fest is now about 3 weeks away. I visited their site to get more of an idea of what they'll be offering. I'll try to see more of the evening shows to prevent the sun and heat from wiping me out... but if the line-ups are more than hype, it'll be a fun show this year.

One bonus, clipped from their site:

The Festival's closing performance will be devoted to Miles Davis, who would have celebrated his 75th birthday this year. As such, master trumpet player Wallace Roney has been invited to offer us a glimpse of Miles' musical legacy, in a concert entitled " Miles and Miles: A Musical Journey." Furthermore, to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Miles Davis' death, the Festival is holding a posthumous tribute, and presenting one of his unknown achievements at the Galerie du Festival. This work, a signed and numbered serigraphy, will be available during the event.

As I mention on this site's discussion boards, I've grown to really enjoy Miles Davis music in the last few years, so this'll be a plus for me.

I also visited Holly Cole's Website. I haven't been there in quite awhile, and saw it was redesigned top to bottom.

One of the changes is a very welcome one: the message boards are now using Ultimate Bulletin Board. UBB seems to be growing more popular by the day... it meant I had to register for it again - but the nice thing is that it remembers your login information for you... a good thing, as I'd forgotten my old login!
