    Dates, venues and artists announced.




    For those of you who are too clueless to leave the comfort zone of Sosua you will be pleased to see that the Santiago venue used in previous years has been dropped and two nights are now being held in Sosua...lol

    (I guess Illana's new Sosua does have some advantages!!)

    Why should I limit myself to only one woman when I can have as many women as I want?

    What type of crowd will you find in these places, love me some live jazz as you know, one of the things I miss about not being in NY anymore. Although I know you aren't focused on the chicas that show up, but are there single ones, or just mostly couples attending these performances?
