Newport update

 I am deeply saddened to announce that Bob Brookmeyer isn't feeling well and won't be able to join us at the Newport Jazz Fest on Saturday.

We will still be playing the new piece I wrote for Brookmeyer, as a "Get well Bob" tribute.

Hey Darcy,

That's too bad. We all wish Bob Brookmeyer well!

Will Gordon Webster be sitting in on the piano? I heard him and his band swinging last weekend at the Connecticut Lindy Exchange.

Looking forward to your set! :-)

You guys killed at Newport Darcy,

It was great to meet you and be introduced to your band. Keep it up and I'll hopefully be seeing you all again soon.

I'm so sorry to hear that Mr. Brookmeyer is not in good health. My first experience of the Newport Jazz Festival was "Jazz on a Summer's Day," and he played and sang "Old Rocking Chair's Got Me" so brilliantly I have never forgotten it.
