No Jazz Tent this year??

[phuture5]

what is the deal, yo?

hey superfly!!!!

4 of the greatest musicians of all time are playing together in a band this year for the first time in 25 years!!!!


RETURN TO FOREVER

After a touring absence of more than 25 years, the potent jazz-rock flagship quartet edition of Return to Forever returns in 2008. This highly anticipated reunion will see the group’s classic lineup—Corea on keyboards, Al Di Meola on guitar, Stanley Clarke on bass and Lenny White on drums—embark on an expansive summer tour with dates in Europe and the United States.

RTF are def. not a jazz tent act, though i would love to see the tent come back

[dudezer47]

Somethin' Else Tent is still listed, so I think an announcement is coming soon.

Unfortunately, I don't see RTF coming to Roo given the fact that they're booked on the west coast 6/12-6/14 and then play Missouri 6/17. I'd love to see them there though...

^ yeah, i think we'll have the Somethin Else tent.

It's only early April, there's really no reason to fret over Somethin Else.

I hear the setup was extra sweet; truly like being transformed into another city altogether.

Last year i spent 0% of my time in the tent. I should really try and check it out if i can in '08!

[GOUGEaway]

Somethin Else Tent was one of the GREAT additions of 2007.

I think for sure it will be back and better than last year. I'll make it a priority to get in there at least twice.

[AgainstNunes!]

please expand in the description of this "Something Else Tent" that you speak of.

it's the jazz tent - jazz bands playing in it all day and night long. it's supposed to feel like a nyc jazz club - and while it might fall a little short of that, it's still a really cool place - air conditioned, shady, chairs + tables, etc.

[phuture5]

i meant to say last year... not next year....


but seriously... why would they not have a few jazz artists on the list?
they're going to have an artist addition with all jazz bands... meh.

[Bishop]

That is an addition I'm looking forward to.
