Kenny Garrert

Out of the 3 concerts I've been here this was not the best (but it was still very very good) but there is a differencial between Kenny Garrett and the rest: be does seem to be a very nice person. Not only the concert was more engaging with the public he was waiting outside the bar to compliment everyone that was leaving, signing CDs, etc. Just a thank you for coming makes the difference. Note this guy is quite famous songs really doesn't need it. For me it shows that he goes beyond the normal jazz player. A rare case nowadays. Pictures show the concert and Kenny talking to people outside.

RegattaBar

I have just arrived at the regattabar for Kenny Garrett's concert. It is a pretty early concert given it starts at 7:30pm. Last time I saw Kenny Garrett was in 1997. I wonder how much he's improved since then.

Break on the T

Just arrived at Harvard square. I had the luck of being on the train where a young kid decided to demonstrate his break skills. It was quite nice actually and the guy was pretty good. He probably made about $10 in that 2 minute ride which is not a bad payoff. Maybe I should change my career. LOL.

More Squash...

I've played squash earlier today. Played about 5 games and won all 5 :) So I'm still unbeaten here. I don't know for how long but it is nice to be playing again. Northeastern is not the best place for the sport but I'm slowly finding more people to play.
