Jammin with Lincoln Center Jazz Crew!
We setup an impromtu jam session for a few of my buddies from the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra at a local club called Star! It was great night, especially considering the guys brought me on stage to help end their concert that night. GOOD TIMES! The best part of the evening for me was giving my students an opportunity to interact with the band members. Here are a few photos from the evening courtesy of Ms. Kimbe Cofield.
