REALLY looking forward to this night. The 3rd time I've done something at the Blue Room, but the 1st time i feel real official about it.
Forget me. There will be some[b:7c802a2b8f] real authentic & respectable Jazz folk [/b:7c802a2b8f]there sharing positive [b:7c802a2b8f]energy and intellect [/b:7c802a2b8f]for[size=18:7c802a2b8f] free[/size:7c802a2b8f]. There is no way hip hop people can't appreciate jazz. This is [b:7c802a2b8f]a prime opportunity[/b:7c802a2b8f] to dive into what too infrequently receives [b:7c802a2b8f]respect [/b:7c802a2b8f]from youth such as ourselves.
