It's not that often that in one night you can see world class jazz musicians play amazing arrangements of all these tunes: Ornette Coleman -- When Will the Blues Leave Thelonious Monk -- Crepescule With Nellie and San Francisco Holiday Herbie Hancock -- And What If I Don't Horace Silver -- Song For My Father (encore -- it made me think of Jacob) For their 10th anniversary year, the SF Jazz Collective is doing a retrospective of their greatest hits, including their annual arrangements of a Jazz Giant's compositions and their own original compositions inspired by that artist. We heard nine fabulous tunes, with two of Monk's because it would be his 96th birthday today. I should have had a Brother Thelonious beer, which was available, but I really don't like it so I had a La Merle Saison instead. I figured Monk wouldn't mind and would have made the same choice. After the run here through Sunday, this is their very odd tour schedule coming up, and I highly recommend seeing them if you are able: Oct 15 Chico, CA Laxson Auditorium Buy Tickets Oct 17 Santa Barbara, CA Campbell Hall Buy Tickets Oct 19 Los Angeles, CA Zipper Concert Hall Buy Tickets Oct 22 Seattle, WA Earshot Jazz Festival Buy Tickets Oct 23 Davis, CA Mondavi Center Buy Tickets Oct 26 Newport News, VA Ferguson Center Concert Hall Buy Tickets Oct 27 Winchester, VA Shenandoah University Buy Tickets

I took a mental health day today. I hadn't been feeling well for a couple of days and didn't have much scheduled today so I decided that rather than get really sick I'd try to get some rest and take care of a few things around the house before the long weekend. I woke up feeling much better than yesterday and almost went to work. I'm glad I didn't. Time to go mail a few packages, one of which is overdue to be headed to Texas for experiments with maths.
