I know it's not on the level of Diarreah Planet, but this should still be pretty good.

Rosslyn Jazzfest 9/7

2013 Performers
?Kenny Rittenhouse Septet
1:00 p.m. Leading his own DC-based ensemble for the past 15 years, Rittenhouse is a fixture at local venues such as Blues Alley and Bohemian Caverns.


?Naomi Shelton and The Gospel Queens
2:15 p.m. The Gospel Queens have been performing together since 1999, born of an earlier group led by pianist Cliff Driver, the musical director.


?The Soul Rebels
4:00 p.m. The group has performed with The Roots, Bootsy Collins, James Brown and Green Day.


?Poncho Sanchez and His Latin Jazz Band
5:30 p.m. The Grammy-winning percussionist performs with Baritone saxophonist and clarinetist James Carter, the winner of multiple DownBeat Critics and Readers Choice awards.


o i don't know...nothing jumps out at me here... i think the silver spring jazz festival tends to be more substantial...this year they have branford marsalis.. not sure who else..its on the same day i think..of course one would have to go to silver spring...i went there today and i can't recommend it anymore..first of all the stretch on 495 on the maryland side is sheer murder.. never seen so many people driving so badly at such a fast speed...and then if you dont' want to drive 85 you're the bad guy... then montgomery county seems to have installed traffic cameras virtually everywhere.i find it a huge turnoff

a few years back i saw allen toussaint at the silver spring one..that was special... i missed aaron neville one year and i can't remember who else they had over there..but its clear they tend to spend a bit ore money and get better acts...

poncho sanchez might be cool .. he did play with/for cal tjader for many years so i'm sure there'd be a cal tribute moment/recognition song..

i saw rittenhouse once at bohemian caverns.. he's allright but i don't think he's any great shakes... as far as local jazz talent i'll take antonio parker any day of the week.. he tends to play at hr57 and is really good

He visits my office every few years and usually gives a pretty entertaining talk.

I didnt realize the Mike Doughty 930 Club set is going to be Soul Coughing songs! Nice, I might have to go see him again (saw him at Black Cat years ago).
