Beaches Jazz Festival 2007

I hit the Jazz Festival on Sunday - first time in a long time. Not being a big fan of huge crowds, I usually stay far, far away. As well, growing up in the Beaches, I tended to see it as more an inconvenience than an inducement to walk along Queen. I believe my biggest pet peeve with the festival was that it wasn't a "Jazz" festival at all, but more a hodgepodge of various music genres. This year, I spent hours by the main stage and was grooving to the sounds of Treasa Levasseur and the SoulJazz Orchestra. Quite an improvement from years gone past. For those of you who stopped by the toronto.com booth to say hello and tell us how much you love the website - thank you! It was a pleasure to meet you all!
