psinke1974 too damn busy this year. I love the festival but they MUST do something about the number of attendees! Neverteless, I had great fun.

clammertmsa George Benson in the giant Nile hall. Get the binoculars out or watch the screens. Got my ears hammered with some main stream pop/jazz. Couldn’t stand it for more than ten minutes. Escaped to Roy Hargrove Quintet. Fantastic trumpet player, nice band, great pianist. Roelofs Goldberg Penman Harland, (what a mouthful) was quite nice in an antique wood and glass setup outside the main building. Horatio Hernandez & Italuba (the joining of Italy and Cuba) was supposed to be latin jazz, but it was pure jazz fusion. Just my thing, great sound. This was the last scheduled program, but they stayed on for a Jam session with Roy Hargrove, Randal Corsten and a bunch of other great guys, whose names I’ve forgotten. I'll be there next year if they reduce the popular main stream jazz. This just draws big crowds, not necessarily all jazz lovers. I'm not complaining, there was plenty for me to choose from that Saturday

Michel Camilo shone and sparkled. He was so excited by the big crowd. Nice guy! He bounced around so hard on his piano stool that the front legs broke off. He just played on balancing on the edge! Excellent show. David Sanchez Group was very good. He (tenor sax) had a guitarist who looked like a fourteen year old. Great guy, very talented: Lage Lund, 27 actually. The crowd was too big to get into the Charlie Haden performance: a real shame, I would have loved to hear him. Randal Corsen was my second choice for that time slot. He really impressed me. He’s a white guy from the Dutch Antilles. Boy, can he play the piano!

This was my first time at North Sea Jazz, but surely not the last! I loved it! Saturday 12-07-08 one of the performances I heard: Pat Metheny Trio….FANTASTIC, but then I’m a big fan since 1988. First time I heard him live. Great performance: some new tracks from his latest album “Day Trip”. The last session was exceptional. This guy is one of the greatest guitarists alive today.

thomas10 Paul Simon bezorgde kippenvel en de schoonheid werkte op de traanspiertjes! Alicia Keys nam je mee in de zoete droomfabriek van een verwend tienermeisje. Laat haar nooit meer zien op NSJ! Jill Scott was fantastisch!

vanMenn What a fantastic festival! Was it me or was the sound at the Mark Ronson & the version players gig very poor..?!
-
Maxiimuss Weet ik niet, maar Pat Metheny was bloooooody brilliant!

Carolaah hmm ik neem me nu al jaren voor een keer heen te gaan, maar ik vind het vrij prijzig ;_; als ik ook nog vervoer/slaapplekken moet regelen en ik voor de standaardprijs niet eens de 'grootste' namen kan zien want daar komt nog eens een extra bedrag over heen ¬¬.. not amused.. Verder wel geniale line-ups en gewoon mooi opgezet
