A Night of Jazz in Portland, Maine

Live Ja in Portland, Maine


The Mark Chillemi Quintet played to a full house at Blue in Portland, Maine.  I love seeing an attentive, listening audience in a bar that supports live music!  We were lucky to find the last two seats at the bar in the back of the room.  People kept pouring in.  I could barely see the musicians, but their music filled my ears without obstruction.

I'll post the weekly bog exercise tomorrow....... my brain is on overload, juggling the joys of life as an artist and the gift of being able to express that journey with the world.... both close and far.
