Monterey Jazz Festival

[Drunk Monk]

It started gray, then got warm & sunny again. Fantastic day full of incredible music, laughs, shenanigans, and a few saves.
Had our first dementia case. 
Thundering Trans trumpeter 
Swedish trombone / flautist / tape dancer / juggler / Scottish bagpipe player blew me away.
Sizzling keyboardist in stuffy sweltering Dizzy’s place
A email complaint from a burner email that we suspect is someone we ejected looking for revenge
Psylocibic
Late night tastings - redbreast 12 (mine), some name anejo, more weird candies - my hardest drug is sugar here

And Ben-dejo ate a fistful of ants

Wait
WTF am I up?
It’s still dark
My circadians are way off right now

[Drunk Monk]

Chillin at camp.
Waiting for arrivals

---

Cool breezes between muggy waves
Climate change 

Gospel was heavenly

Waiting for Stacy & Sofia

Another wonderful festival

I’ll tell you about it later

And with MJF, my 2025 festival season comes to a close.

Woke to a few texted pix of the Jazz Cats at the afterparty. Looked like fun like always. But some cups I must pass by…

I brought my pocket version of Hakagure and am pleased that I actually started reading it.

Swedish trombone / flautist / tape dancer / juggler / Scottish bagpipe player blew me away.

Her name is Gunhild Carling and her show was my fav of the weekend. Such high energy. All over the place like some mad vaudeville act. Such tight chops. I’d pay to see her and her band again. Every song and comic schtick grabbed me by the tassels and shook me like a flapper.

Extra points because I got a selfie with her daughter, Idun  Blomé who is also in the band.

Here’s a taste

She's fun!
