Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis
Posted Apr 15, 2002
Words can't even begin to describe how amazing it was. It was SO good. The best jazz I've ever heard and seen performed. My god, it was just so great. Nothing was wrong about it. It was peformed in Symphony Hall (Boston, just in case you didn't know which landmark on the map I was located by).
They started off with this Ellington tune, followed by a Monk tune, and then this really great Afro-Cuban tune. Then to end the first part they ended it with a Blues. The blues, just like everything else they played, was just beautiful. So beautiful...
Intermission. Went down to lounge type area. Order drinks 
. Fifteen minutes up. Return to seat. 2nd Balcony 1st row, B. Better seats than one might imagine. I could see everything...
For the whole second part they played Coltrane's entire 'A Love Supreme.'
...
There's just nothing I can say. It was so...
so...
well, think of any variation of the adjectives, 'best brilliant, and magnificent,' and you might perhaps understand...
The encore was a dixielandish type version of Happy Birthday for one of their trumpet players. It was great because I honestly couldn't get enough of hearing them although PEOPLE WERE CLAPPING ON 1 AND 3, THE FOOLS.
But I didn't mind too much. It was worth getting to hear the band play more and watching in mesmerized admiration as the drummer, Herlin Riley, just entirely blew everyone away with his playing.

Not entirely sure what to say any more...
Soul-twin exclaims this is the greatest site in the world. More I think about it the more I agree. However, still have this feeling of paranoia in not being noticed or whatnot. Seems to be p*****g off friends. Probably should cut it out.
Latin quiz in twenty minutes. Would study but lost my binder whence fascists threw all my paper and notebooks into trashbags in order to "help organize." Math homework to do as well on logistics growth functions. And five days left to finish the rough draft of my thesis. Good God.
Soul-twin and I plan to write joint-entry, something I've been trying to do for quite some time now. Still have to finish Magritte University Project although I still don't know where to take it. Abi probably forgot about our bet regarding who would finish first too.
Oh, yeah. And I want breakfast but apparantly fascists dipped into my wallet whence "organizing" as well...
Godforsaken Mondays....
