Congrats on some inspired writing about Jason and the boys.
A most extraordinary evening indeed.
You certainly bring another dimension to these gigs with your excellent writings Lance. The North East seems to be awash with talent...not least yours!
The North-east certainly is awash with talent although, on this occasion, the talent was 33% American (piano, bass and drums)and 66% London based (horns).
The North-east certainly is awash with talent although, on this occasion, the talent is 25% humour (wordplay, personality) and 75% intuition (perception, interpretation) and 10% magnetism (regular readership, enchantment).
I'm nicely stranded in 2008, reading from the start; hours and hours of delectable posts to look forward to as I gaze upon appetizing titles to click. Bebop Spoken Here is an inspirational labour of love.

Thanks Sarah R. I'm pleased these'labours of love' aren't lost.
