Heading To Chicago

On my way to Chicago in the morning with the McNally Smith Fusion Ensemble. They will be performing at various locales starting tomorrow and ending with the big show at the Elmhurst Jazz Festival on Sunday. I will be photographing and blogging about the first couple of days of their adventures and performances. As will members of the ensemble. I am pretty excited about this opportunity. Except for the fact that the Black Hawks are on the road but they'll be here on Monday. At any rate I am Chi-Town bound.

More to come....from the windy city,

    Dave, Ben, Petar, Adrian, Terry, Peter, Trevor, Antonio and I made it through the sleet and snow to our hotel in well, two pieces (vehicles).
    The story about the Osseo stop will have to wait...

  2. A special thanks to the generosity of Evanston Township HS band director Dave Fodor !! The fusion ensemble sounded excellent at their two performances this afternoon. What's up with forgetting something on a daily basis, guys??
