Jamey Aebersold Summer Jazz Workshop

[Upright Bill]

Uncle Skid and I are making our second Annual pilgrimage to Louisville to the Jamey Aebersold Summer Jazz Workshop at the University of Louisville from July 4 to July 9.

Is anyone else going?

Any one in the Louisville area care to “hook-up?”

BTW, we've been to Rich O's.

I really wanted to go this year, but I'm starting a new job next week and can't really ask for a week off so soon.

Have fun guys. B)

Man, Aebersold played here last week at Bear's Place & I couldn't make the gig because of work. Hope you guys have a great time!

ghost -- if I remember correctly, all of the concerts in the evening (at the university) are free. Bill, please correct me if I'm wrong about that.

This year (during the week we are there, July 4-9), David Liebman is playing.

I believe there are concerts every night (sunday-thursday) during both weeks. The wednesday night concert is sponsored by the Louisville Jazz Society at Mattson's restaurant (nice atmosphere, but truly awful food), and they charge a nominal fee for non-workshop students.

Let us know if you can make it to any of these!

Thanks, Uncle Skid. I don't know if I'll have the time, but I'll let you know if I make my way down the road... Wasn't Aebersold part of the Lenox scene?

All of the evening concerts are free, except Wednesday. Wednesday is sponsored by the Louisville Jazz Society and, therefore, the only concert where you can have a drink.

All of the lunch and dinner concerts are only the cost of a meal at Masterson's (the price is low but the cost to your taste buds is high).

A couple of folks from the Double Bass list will be attending concerts with us as well.

Dredging this one out of the archives, on the off-chance that anybody here might be attending this summer.

I'm not "for sure" yet, but I'll probably go the first week (7/4-7/9).
