Any chance that anyone will be making it up to Detroit for this festival this weekend? There is a small possibility that I might stop by after the Tigers' game on Saturday, but it is probably unlikely. |

| Its too far to drive from Memphis, sounds like a cool festival though. |

An article in the paper which sums up the festival. It appears that weather and an appearance to the city by President Obama put a damper on things but it appears as though there were still some highlights. http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20110906/ENT04/109060311/1032/ent/Jazz-fest-keeps-things-hot-despite-storm--traffic" rel="nofollow - http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20110906/ENT04/109060311/1032/ent/Jazz-fest-keeps-things-hot-despite-storm--traffic |

| Know only half of names on the list, not a fan of Amina Figarova, saw Dianne Reeves few years ago live. Angelique Kidjo sings somewhere near my hometown few times every year. I expect Joe Lovano was a real headliner though. |
