You may have already heard this somewhere else, but I just found out about it tonight.
Sonny Rollins, one of the last great giants of the hard bop jazz era, will be at the Chicago Jazz Festival in Grant Park. The entire lineup of events and performers can be found here, but Sonny appears to be slated for a 6:30 performance in the Pritzker Pavilion on Aug. 28th.
Anybody who has been to this site knows how much of an influence Rollins has been to me personally, so getting a chance to see him live anywhere is an opportunity not to be missed. When that opportunity is on the lakefront in beautiful downtown Chicago, I can't imagine a better scenario.
The festival goes to Aug. 31st, with many other quality artists and performances during the festival. Hope to see you there.
