I notice that this year there is no "Chairmans Choice Award".
Wonder what happened to it, or maybe Albert just can't make his mind up this year. I know what my choice would be but I get in enough trouble for swearing around here.

Does the festival actually still have a Chairman? Albert Dadon is now Artistic Director, don't know if he is still Chairman too.
On another point re awards if there are awards for artists why not awards for the technicians, producers, radio presenters and punters?
Some suggestions:
best producer
best record company
most enthusiastic recording engineer
best live sound tech
best segue by radio presenter
best tour manager
best promoter
most interesting monologue between music by a presenter on live radio
best applause by a punter (ok now I'm getting silly)
best silence by punter during a performance
award for most attendances by a punter at CD launches
best jazz club MC
best flogger of CDs at gigs etc...

Great idea Vicki - but consider these alternatives....
Least egotistical producer
Most responsive Record Company
Any sound tech who isnt a freaking fascist
Most enthusiastic Recording engineer(under lie detection)
Love "the best silence" award..
Think I'll go for that one right now.

Perhaps it should be 'the award for most artistic director'.
Just a thought.

Christ, more Awards, why not just give awards to anyone who knows how to spell Jass, then we could all have one!
How about these awards,
Fattest arse,
smelliest undies
longest fart ( to make sure I get one )
stupidest smile
most major scales in solo
longest solo using one major scale
worst technique
most gigs without practicing
least interaction on a CD
most fuckedest artwork

Think I'll go for that one right now. Originally I had included a list of 'Golden Turkey' type jazz awards but I was worried about being perceived as too negative. I'm such a wimp these days. It must be middle age dread. |
