Herbie Rides Again. New venue for Maine Street Jazzmen

The Maine Street Jazzmen, led by trombonist Herbie Hudson, start what they optimistically hope will be a regular Wednesday lunchtime session at the LAMBTON ARMS, Eighton Banks, Gateshead. Stomping off at 1:00 pm until 3:00 pm. This brings the north-east's lunchtime sessions to around seven spread over the week plus, of course, the summer park gigs and the jazz workshops. No need to miss your much needed beauty sleep if you're an ageing jazzer - unless you're wanting your fix on a Thursday or a Saturday lunchtime.
-----
A very important all-dayer takes place at Stockton's Georgian Theatre this Sunday with the Milestones Jazz Club & Stockton Fringe Festival.
12:00 noon: Alter Ego/1:00 Zoe Gilby/2:00 Miles Ahead/ 3:00 Saxophonics/ 4:00 Spelk/ 5:00 Nick Pride/ 6:00 Splinter/ 7:15 Extreme Measure/ 8:15 Funk Regulators.
A truly mouth-watering event.
-----
Extreme Measures can also be heard on Tuesday evening at The Cluny in a Maggie's Cancer Charity Event.
