The last hour of the featured a special guest, Pat Maiani from C-Jazz, talking about the Calgary Jazz Festival, which will run from June 24-29, 2008. We talked about some of the performers who will be part of the event (and other upcoming C-Jazz concerts) and played some of their music. It was a pleasure to have Pat join me. The website for the Festival is www.calgaryjazz.com/2007/Festival/cjazzfestival.htm.
