everybody, this jazzfest is one of the best!! smaller venue [maybe 5000 people], excellent seats, excellent musicians, excellent weather [never been rained on the 3 times i've been], rum&coke $2, heineken $2.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! you wont regret it!
better deal is the 4-day pass $80 + taxes/fees.
3 wks ago, i had to buy each day’s tickets individually since the 4-day pass wasnt available. still, at 103+taxes/fees for all 4 nites, still a great deal!
