Lance I know, I know, your total was a moving target, and at the time when I wrote that bit of the newsletter there were, Scout's Honour, only eleven pieces there.
I will put in an amendment next week - but the number will probably have risen again (?). I haven't read them all, but I did think Ann Alex's piece was just great! But all in all fantastic work and I'm sure Ros R and Gaynor will be thanking you for such incredible support !
I appreciate that but an amendment isn't necessary. As you say it is a moving target and there are probably another two reviews out there.
Are you coming up to Newcastle next weekend?
No Manchester Friday 12, Oxford Sunday 14, Leeds Monday 15, thereafter just London - oh and Bremen!
How much coverage did GIJF get in the national press? I don't think The Guardian reviewed any of it....
Some belated national coverage here: http://www.jazzjournal.co.uk/jazz-latest-news/570/review-gateshead-jazz-festival-2013
There is a limited review by Alyn Shipton in May's issue of Jazzwise Magazine.
