This week's smattering (Live jazz in ROC, September 10-16)
September 09, 2015
This post is coming to you from the great Midwest prairie in Wichita, Kansas! Coming home soon (I hope), though. I'm afraid it's a bit light over the next seven days. Sorry about that. Let your local restauranteur or club owner know that we need more JAZZ!
Please help me get the word out about Jazz@Rochester! Let those you know who love hearing live jazz in and around Rochester about the site and suggest they join us here, or on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram. If you prefer, sign up to get the posts via email by clicking on the image of the site coming out of the envelope in the middle column.
After the "fold" (click the link if there is one for you) you will find the next seven days of live jazz in and around Rochester. Let me know if I missed anything. Check back later in the week for stragglers.
