Was here last week. Just getting over the huge number of concerts. Seemed like a nice progressive city where you could bump into musicians at various places (Carla Bley, Steve Swallow, Andy Sheppard at a single table by themselves in a Japanese restaurant or sitting with Bley and Swallow the next morning over breakfast or visiting with Philip Jeck at dinner another night, and so on). Musicians/artists seemed to be delighted and a bit surprised by the reception in a place like Knoxville, but two-thirds of the audience were from out-of-town. Good music, good food, good weather, and easy access to both the venues and the musicians made it a memorable event. Ready for next year.
