Did anyone attend this year’s Detroit Jazz Festival? I remember franksexton usually attends every year. I didn’t make
it this year. It’s the same weekend as the Chicago Jazz Festival, but the DJF always has a better lineup. I would have
liked to hear the John Scofield Trio with Vicente Archer and Bill Stewart. |

franksexton, thank you for responding. I was disappointed by this year’s DJF lineup and new VIP Day Pass price
increase. Previous years I got the $500 VIP Pass for all four days and food/beverage package. Why didn’t yo attend
this year? I don’t think it will be the same after Gretchen Valde’s passing. Also this year I thought the Artist-In-
Residence was weak, especially after previous years (Pat, Wayne Shorter, Ron Carter and several that I wasn’t
interested in (Herbie Hancock). If Pat was A-I-R I would go again.
