They were all within walking distance, maximum 15-20 minutes apart (at a leisurely pace). I found it all very smooth and well-organized. Not every venue chosen was perfect for every act (sometimes a bit too much ambient noise in the Mill & Mine venue specifically) but for the most part the venues were great. No monster crowds, which was really refreshing. Artists were super accessible too, and just a good vibe overall.

Damn, hate to hear this. RIP, sir, and thank you for all your music.

I'm here and it's great! Came to U-Tenn to give a talk and stayed for this. Best performance so far (although there are way too many to see, and the quality is extraordinary) has been Frederic Rzewski doing "The People United Shall Never Be Defeated." Sat on the floor right next to the piano's open lid and it was mind-blowing. I hope to come back next year.

Who's Bridge, baby. RIP, Mr. Mengelberg.

Been a while. Lotta old stuff purged, lotta new stuff added. Thanks for looking.

Damn, RIP.

My semi-occasional update is posted. Thanks for looking.

Awful, awful news. A truly great pianist and such a kind, smart, lively person too. RIP.

Quarterly bump with loads of updates. Thanks for looking!

McKay's "Circular Breathing" is a title I'd recommend.

RIP, sir.

Fabulous news!!!

RIP.

Very sad to read this news. RIP, Mr. Baker.

Bump with a big update. Thanks for looking.

I always thought the classic Coltrane Quartet would do a bang-up version of "We Three Kings."

Great news, Kevin. Just send me a PM re. payment info when you get a chance, and I'll send you my buddy's address.

PM sent! Hoping to get this music for a friend.

Bump with a big, post-Thanksgiving update.

Wow, someone should jump on this.

Not sure if this has been mentioned on some other thread, but No Business have just reissued Echoes from Rudolph, too. Great times for Carter devotees.

Been a long time, but I'm bumping this with a big new list.

The Halvorson tracks I've heard so far confirm Leeway's opinion, for sure.

RIP.

Been enjoying the solo Eskelin on Hat, the new Melford on Enja, and the latest Schlippenbach/Parker/Lovens on Intakt.
