Well, it has been a LONG day adding the last of the shows and making corrections to the listings. This year, you will notice that there are a few changes such as in-store shows now show on the grids due to end=user demand. We'll see how that works out, and may change it back again next year !

If there are mistakes and omissions, my apologies for those who emailed me and provided the correct information. We've edited and tried to be as accurate as possible - but we are human, after all :)

A few tricks are available for y'all starting tomorrow. If you type in http://www.jazzfestgrids.com/first_weekend/frenchmen you'll get a listing of everything on frenchmen street that we have (it works for all of the pages /second_weekend/frenchmen etc) :) It's a beta thing and we might expand that next year to include other neighborhoods - we might not... lol.

If you want to see everything in one fell swoop - you can type in http://www.jazzfestgrids.com/enchilada (I hope some of you appreciate that choice of url :)).

Feedback is welcome - hope to see you all at the many events around the city this week and next. I especially hope to see everyone around town at Threadhead Thursday - a FREE concert in City Park on 4/28 from 6pm - 'till featuring Threadhead Records artists! Bring your chairs and blankets - there will be concessions available.

Happy JazzFest Everyone !!!
