Gigs of the month: Classic Jazz Party & Mick Shoulder Quintet.
I may be prejudiced (!) - but I'd also say gig of the month, Classic Jazz Party (a full weekend of hot jazz treats), and Mick Shoulder Quintet (with Lewis Watson) at Roly's Black Bull venue following closely!
Another quiet'n. Perhaps I've retired and Mrs T just hasn't told me yet.

RNCM plays Zappa @ Union, Metropolitan University, Manchester, 30th.
