North Sea Jazz Festival, Saturday 15 July, impressions..
Our impressions of our first day at the North Sea Jazz Festival, Rotterdam:
[Hieronymus Fox - HF; Frenchy - F]
Clinic with Branford Marsalis
[HF]
Surprising, was expecting something with music, a performance, whatever. Turned out to be a Q&A session. Interesting to hear a musician’s mindset and motivations: depth, simplicity and feeling about jazz.
[F]
Damn hot in that room. Loved the down-to-earthness, funny guy!
Sergio Mendes
[HF]
A compromise between his old (true) stuff and his recent release. Best way to introduce his music to a large crowd. More substance than show.
[F]
Agreed, too bad that most people are corpselike and not really swinging to the music. Only when they played Mas Que Nada did some of the corpses start moving around a bit
Neville Brothers
[HF]
Old and seasoned warriors, authentic performers
[F]
Well.. not really impressive, just ok..
Bilal
[HF]
Crappy sound, ego show, seemed like Bilal thought he was the ultimate performer, Soul God.. Potential wasn’t used very well.
[F]
Crappy sound, check! Great voice, okay ego, okay performer, but not God’s gift to Soul
Tower of Power
[HF]
Blown away! Brilliant. Better singer than last time I saw them, adding more to the band than being annoying. Great encore.
[F]
1st time ever, excellent! 28 years in the business, that’s my age, goddammit! Incredible!
Omar
[HF]
Crappy sound, sore legs, good music, same old, same old.. Great DJ in the Yukon room.
[F]
Got used to the crappy sound, even sorer back ;o)
Leela James
[HF]
Second time around, better than the HMH show, video screens added to the charm and power of the performance.
[F]
Agreed.. tired of typing ;o)
Maybe you missed some concerts

knee-jerk reaction on my part, I’ve been having a bit of a spam problem with all kinds of stuff being posted as comments.. Askimet tool catches most spam and let’s me verify them. Couldn’t be sure yours was a valid comment posting. Chose to remove the links from it.
Hope you’re not offended
